LEBANON, TN — Now-ex Tennessee Highway Patrolman James Randy Moss had no idea that the early morning traffic stop on May 7th, 2007, would forever change his life; but it did. Not only is he very much out of a job now, he will also spend the next four years on probation, thanks to tendency to go a little easy on female offenders – particularly those willing to endure his sexual advances.Forty-year-old Moss had clocked in more than a decade of work time with the state Department of Safety when he pulled 21-year-old Justis Ellen Richert, aka porn star Barbie Cummings’, pink Honda Accord over for going 20 miles over the posted speed limit. Nobody but the two of them might have known the inventive way they’d resolved the slightly post-midnight incident, had Cummings not decided to blog about the subject.

The respectable, married trouper had seen a bottle of alcohol and a bottle of Vicodin in her car during the traffic stop and, instead of citing her, had listened to her tale of woe and then sat with her in his cop cruiser watching Barbie Cummings’ footage stream from her website onto his state-issued laptop.

Once Moss had a clear understanding of the professional attributes of the women under his police control, the officer tossed the bottle of pills into the brush and then accepted an offered blowjob of apology from the contrite performer, who had been on her way home to Knoxville after visiting her aunt. In order to forever remember the moment, Moss snapped photos and video with his cell phone. Then he wrote a ticket. Later, he emailed Richert copies of the footage showing her giving him head.

Not wanting to miss the opportunity to turn lemons into lemonade, the performer not only blogged about the encounter on the Barbie Cummings website, but posted the content that Moss had so generously provided her.

The next day, an anonymous complaint against Moss was filed and on May 24th, when the agency moved to fire him, he tendered his resignation, admitting everything.

As a result of the publicity concerning the case, other women stepped forward with stories of their own, including an anonymous woman who had been stopped by Moss onn September 11th, 2006. All-in-all, more than 25 incidents were investigated by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the Highway Patrol.

Ultimately accused of six counts of official misconduct, two counts of official oppression, and two counts of tampering with evidence in two different situations, Moss plea bargained down to his four year probation deal for only two of the charges today in Wilson County court.
