Nashville’s mayor has resigned and pleaded guilty to a felony 
just a month after refusing to step down when it was discovered 
she had an affair with her bodyguard.

Although she apologized January 31 for the previous affair with 
a Nashville Police Department sergeant who is now retired, Megan 
Barry did not resign from office when the relationship was 
uncovered. But she stepped down March 6 and pleaded guilty to a 
theft charge, according to an Associated Press report.

The resignation was part of a plea agreement on the felony 
charge. The AP said she received three years of probation and 
was ordered to pay an $11,000 fine in restitution, after 
allegedly causing thousands of dollars from the city’s funds to 
be spent in an unlawful manner.

When the affair was discovered, critics pointed to the use of 
public funds to finance work trips for the mayor on which the 
police sergeant, Robert Forrest, accompanied her. Those travel 
expenses may have reached about $30,000 in 2017, and Forrest 
received additional overtime pay during that period.

When Barry was in court to plead guilty, she admitted to 
unlawfully spending more than $10,000 in city funds on the 
sergeant between March 2016 and this past January, according to 
National Public Radio.

“While my time today as your mayor concludes, my unwavering love 
and sincere affection for this wonderful city and its great 
people never ends,” Barry said at a news conference, according 
to the AP.

The relationship allegedly began in 2016. Authorities found 
deleted phone logs of chats and calls between Barry and Forrest 
during an investigation. They also found nude photos on the 
sergeant’s work phone, believed to be taken in 2017 while he was 
on duty, although the person in the photos was not publicly 
identified.

Barry, a Democrat, became mayor in 2015.

Her vice mayor, David Briley, will take her place on an interim 
basis.
