Happy Valentine's Day! One thing we LOVE at the DA’s office is responsible parents that fulfill their child support payments. This money is necessary as it goes towards helping to raise children. It’s very important for non-custodial parents who are ordered to pay child support to maintain employment and to stay in communication with our office.

This defendant owes over $48,000 in child support and is on the run!

DA’s Fugitive Friday for February 14, 2025:

William Taylor is wanted out of Gibson County Juvenile Court on an attachment warrant for failing to appear on his scheduled court date of September 18, 2024.

Mr. Taylor owes over $48,000 dollars in back child support.

His last known address was in Humboldt, TN.

If you have any contact with Mr. Taylor, please encourage him to turn himself in to the Gibson Co. Sheriff’s Department.

If you have any information to assist our office with bringing Mr. Taylor into custody, please contact District Attorney Criminal Investigator Jimmy Wilson at [email protected] or (731) 855-7813.

Thank you for any assistance in bringing Mr. Taylor into custody.

*Disclaimer: This is an alleged crime, and the person of interest is innocent until proven guilty.

To the Citizens of Gibson County:

We would like to make you aware that our field reviewer, Lee, will be in the vehicle pictured below while doing property reviews. State Law requires our office to review each and every property in the county so that your taxes accurately reflect what is on your property (sheds, pool, house, barns, etc.). It takes approximately 5 years to review from one end of the county to the other.

If you see this vehicle on or around your property, please know that he is just doing his job.

We aim to keep citizens informed and educated as best as we possibly can. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office at 731-855-7634.
Thank you.

Someone is once again calling people saying they are with the Sheriff’s Office and telling them there is a warrant out for their arrest for missing jury duty. They further state it can be taken care of if they send money. First of all we don’t operate in this manner, second of all if you did happen to miss jury duty you would be served with a show cause order with a court date, not a warrant.
