In 2012, Captain Travis Williams was demoted and later terminated from the Madison County Sheriff’s Office. Williams filed a federal lawsuit alleging violations of substantive and procedural due process, free speech, and emotional distress. The lawsuit claimed that his demotion and termination were retaliatory, stemming from his reporting of misconduct within the department and his wife’s public statements against the sheriff. The case proceeded to trial in 2015. [Source: East Idaho News, 2015](https://www.eastidahonews.com/2015/03/132204/)
