Longtime Nashville child abuse prosecutor Brian Holmgren is no longer with the District Attorney's Office, D.A. Glenn Funk confirmed today. Funk did not specify why Holmgren left the office, but he did announce that he has discovered a backlog of more than 130 child abuse and child sexual abuse cases in Holmgren's division in which no action had been taken. As a result of the discovery, Funk said he has instituted new protocols, including monthly reviews of those types of cases. The Tennessean has more.
