Special Agents from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, working alongside deputies from the Marion County Sheriff’s Department and members of the 12th Judicial Drug Task Force, have arrested a Whitwell man in connection to a homicide.
At the request of 12th Judicial District Attorney General Courtney Lynch, special agents began investigating the death of Danny Durham (DOB 5/19/1958) shortly after deputies found the man deceased in a home in the 100 block of Big Rock Road on March 9th. During the investigation, authorities developed information leading them to Billy Massengale (DOB 12/19/1975) as the person responsible for Durham’s death.
On Saturday, authorities arrested Massengale and booked him into the Marion County Jail. On Tuesday, he was charged with Criminal Homicide.
