There are two entities authorized by the State to provide this certification. In addition to the 40 hours of in-service training required, Constables may take a variety of classes to learn new skills and to sharpen existing skills.
HUE AND CRY FROM CONSTABLE CODE
Tennessee Code requires that to be certified as a law enforcement officers with powers of arrest that the Constables are required to participate in 40 hours of in-service training each year and to be range-qualified by a Certified Firearms Instructor prior to carrying their firearms. While their powers as peace officers are valid statewide, their activities are generally limited to the county where they are elected. They are charged with keeping the peace and with the enforcement of the laws of the state, county and its cities.
HUE AND CRY FROM CONSTABLE FULL
Macon County Constables are sworn and bonded peace officers with full powers of arrest under Tennessee Code Annotated Title 8, chapter 10.
I do solemnly swear I will well and truly serve the state in the office of Constable that I will cause the peace of the state to be kept, to the best of my power that I will arrest all such persons as go in my sight armed offensively, or who commit any riot, affray, or other breach of the peace, or I will use my best endeavor, on complaint made, to apprehend all felons, rioters, or person riotously assembled and that, if such persons flee or make resistance, I will pursue, and make hue and cry, according to the law that I will faithfully and without delay execute all and return all lawful process directed to me and that I will well and truly, according to my power and ability, do and execute all other duties of the office of Constable, SO HELP ME GOD. Richard I’s practices benefited the baronage, but the chancellor’s determination to bring as many castles as possible under his direct control worked to alienate the chief justiciar from his subjects and disastrously eroded his power base."I do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the State of Tennessee and the Constitution of the United States or America. Though the evidence is of a more tentative nature than that for judicial activity and shrievalties, Longchamp employed in this critical position men close to him, both personal dependents and tested curial servants, a pattern of appointment markedly different from that of the king. Does Longchamp’s style of management repeat itself with castles and what were the implications for him, the kingdom, and the king? A cursory glance at events during his justiciarship shows that castles played a large role in the narrative, from the massacre of the Jews at York Castle to the arrest of Archbishop Geoffrey at Dover Castle. Recent research has shown that the latter charge is patently untrue but the former, utilizing foreigners and others unfamiliar with England and its government, was fundamentally true, at least with regard to justice and the shrievalties. The hue and cry lifted against the chief justiciar by leaders of the revolt that ousted him included accusations that Longchamp filled England and its offices with “foreigners and unknown men” and that he ruled without the appares, associates whom Richard had included in the regency to assist the chief justiciar.
But before Richard had even left the European continent, Longchamp’s justiciarship had provoked a powerful reaction from those subjected to it.
By 1190, King Richard I of England (1189-1199) had departed for the Third Crusade and had settled on William Longchamp, royal chancellor and bishop of Ely, as the chief justiciar, the king’s regent during the royal absence.
