Jason Shane Marlin – Cullman County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

As the Police Chief of Hanceville, Marlin was indicted in February 2025 for two counts of failure to report ethics violations and tampering with physical evidence. The grand jury found that under his leadership, the department operated more like a criminal enterprise than a law enforcement agency, leading to a recommendation to disband the department.
