Former Sheriff Todd Entrekin was involved in a 2018 lawsuit where a woman accused him of statutory rape, alleging that he engaged in sexual relations with her at drug-fueled parties in 1992 when she was 15 years old. Entrekin denied the allegations, calling them ‘the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard of.’ In 2020, Entrekin filed a defamation lawsuit against AL.com, law enforcement officers, and others involved in the publication of the story, claiming the article was ‘reckless and malicious’ and damaged his reputation and employment opportunities.
