The cop who slept with six of her co-workers addressed the scandal in a police interview which shed more light on the situation.

As reported by the Daily Mail, Patrol officer Meagan Hall of the La Vergne Police Department was dismissed alongside four other officers after it came to light they had been engaging in sexual activity while on shift.

Following an internal investigation, officers Juan Lugo-Perez, Lewis Powell, detective Seneca Shields, and Sgt. Henry Ty McGowan admitted to the allegations.

Patrol and K-9 Officer Larry Holladay, Patrol Officer Patrick Magliocco, and Patrol Officer Gavin Schoeberl were all suspended following the investigation.

Police interview transcripts, obtained by WSMV4, reveal Hall opening up about the scandal which includes details of a "girls gone wild" party, strip UNO, and a hot tub party.

During the interview, Hall admitted to sleeping with Officer Larry Holladay but didn't think it needed to be reported to the station. She also admitted to engaging in oral sex with Sgt. Lewis Powell at a substation of La Vergne Police Department.

She also admitted that she had sex with Officer Patrick Magliocco multiple times and one occasion was in a threesome that included his wife.

The former officer also admitted to sending nude images of herself to multiple co-workers and revealed that they reciprocated with images of their own.

Hall went on to say that she lied during the investigation so as to not let down her police chief who had supported her through multiple incidents where she had crashed her police vehicle.

"I got desperate, I guess, and guys are guys, and they’ll stick their (expletive) in anything," Hall said, also branding herself as "stupid."

Other officers were also interviewed about their involvement or knowledge of the scandal, with Henry Ty McGowan opening up about a hot tub party on Sgt. Eric Staats houseboat, adding that he had sent Hall nude photographs but denied sleeping with her.

He added that he knew people were having sex on the job but didn't say anything as he knew that if the information got out it would damage the police department.

Juan Lugo-Perez acknowledged that he had sex with Hall and lied during the investigation, and Lewis Powell initially claimed he had not slept with his co-worker but later admitted to it when the investigation threatened to uncover the truth. Hall added in her interview that she was worried Powell would hurt her if she spoke about their sexual activity.

Shields had been at the department for 10 years and after initially lying, he admitted to having sex with Hall and said that he believed she had a foot fetish.

Holladay revealed he was in a sexual relationship with Hall and he had engaged in a threesome with her and his child's mother but was adamant none of this occurred on police property.

Magliocco was truthful throughout the entirety of the investigation where he admitted to having engaged in sexual relations with Hall and confirmed that his wife was also involved.

Gavin Schoeberl revealed he had received a nude image from Hall but never slept with her and Officer Vielka Brizendine stated that a game of strip UNO took place without Hall's involvement.

Hall has since been offered $10,000 dollars to perform at a strip club, and her husband is attempting to repair their marriage.
