   You're a sick man, Rob Forrest.  Sticking your dick in something   
   that looks like that.   
      
   Former Mayor Megan Barry's bodyguard Rob Forrest pleaded guilty   
   Tuesday to felony theft after an investigation by the Tennessee   
   Bureau of Investigation into their affair.   
      
   Forrest pleaded guilty to theft of property over $10,000 and was   
   given three years' probation.

   The plea was one development during a chaotic day in Nashville   
   that also saw Barry plead guilty to a felony theft count related   
   to the affair and resign as the city's mayor.   
      
   District Attorney Glenn Funk's office said Tuesday that Forrest   
   admitted he had improperly received more than $10,000 in city   
   compensation "for time he reported as work hours which were   
   actually personal time with Megan Barry," according to a   
   statement from the office.   
      
   As a term of Forrest's probation, he is required to reimburse   
   Nashville $45,000 paid to him as salary, a sum that "represents   
   an acceptable figure for his increase in hours and pay in   
   contrast to other members of (Barry's) detail," according to   
   Funk's office.

   As of late Tuesday, Forrest had not yet paid back the money,   
   though Funk's office confirmed Barry earlier that day had   
   reimbursed the city $11,000 — Forrest's Metro-funded travel   
   expenses during the affair — that she was ordered to pay as her   
   probation condition.   
      
   According to Davidson County Sheriff's Office records, Forrest   
   was booked into the Metro jail downtown at 12:36 p.m and   
   released from custody at 2:11 p.m.   
      
   At the request of Funk, TBI has closed its criminal   
   investigation into Barry and Forrest, the agency confirmed   
   Tuesday afternoon.   
      
   Amid news of affair, Forrest retired from police department   
   During Barry's time in office, Forrest earned over $170,000 in   
   overtime, more than the combined amount of the other officers on   
   the security detail.

   Barry admitted to an affair Jan. 31 with Forrest, who oversaw   
   the mayoral security detail for 14 years.   
      
   He retired that same day after over 31 years with the department.   
      
   Forrest is slated to get a $6,691 monthly pension, or $80,303 a   
   year — an amount that increased substantially because of the   
   overtime he was paid, Metro Nashville records show.   
      
   If any of the ongoing investigations reveal he collected   
   overtime improperly, then Forrest's pension may be reduced,   
   according to Mark Young, a member of the Metro Employee Benefits   
   Board and the president of the Nashville Fire Fighters   
   Association, the local union.   
      
   "We’re charged to oversee the pension benefit. Of course we want   
   to protect it, and if there’s anybody that's receiving a pension   
   in the amount that they should not be, we need to fix it," Young   
   said. "If it comes before us, I would be asking that his pension   
   be adjusted to reflect the correct amount that he earned.”   
      
   Mayor Megan Barry pleaded guilty to felony theft or property   
   over $10,000 in criminal court this morning. She agreed to   
   reimburse the city, and serve three years probation. Kyleah

   Forrest accompanied Barry, with no other mayoral staff, on 10   
   out-of-town trips during the affair.   
      
   An affidavit made public last month detailed nude photos of a   
   woman, who appears to be Barry. The photos were taken during two   
   of the trips and had time stamps that corresponded to time when   
   Forrest was on duty, according to payroll records.   
      
   If Forrest adheres to the terms of his probation, his guilty   
   plea will be vacated and criminal record will be expunged, his   
   attorney David Raybin said.   
      
   Reporter Mike Reicher contributed to this report.   
      
   Chief Steve Anderson's statement on Forrest   
   "Today’s conditional guilty plea by Rob Forrest and the   
   associated statement of facts are indicative of his betrayal of   
   the citizens of Nashville and the men and women of this police   
   department.   
      
   "Forrest was in a unique assignment away from his chain of   
   command on a daily basis. From all accounts, he had performed   
   well in that assignment during the Purcell and Dean   
   administrations.   
      
   "Forrest’s supervisors trusted him. We now know that he betrayed   
   that trust during the Barry administration, leaving behind a   
   sentiment of disdain among those who continue in their work with   
   the Metropolitan Police Department.   
      
   "I am among those who share that sentiment."
