A former Chickasaw County Board of Health member has filed a lawsuit against Chickasaw County and one of its supervisors claiming that he was libeled and slandered during the county’s attempt to remove him from the board.
In a lawsuit filed last month by Osage attorney Aaron Murphy, Terry Johnson alleges that comments made by Supervisor Jacob Hackman, who was the chairman of the Board of Supervisors at the time, were “false and defamatory statements that were publicized and publicly disseminated which statements have denied Terry Johnson the benefits of public and personal confidence and social dealing and have injured in the pursuit of his life and/or occupation.”
