JACKSBORO, TN. (WLAF)- Zach Daugherty will appear in criminal court Monday as prosecutors attempt to revoke, or at least, increase his bail. In March, Daugherty was released on a $75,000 bond following an indictment for aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor with more than 25 images. CLICK HERE for that story.

On Halloween night, Daughtery was arrested for DUI, violation of the implied consent law and speeding. CLICK HERE for that story.

For those charges, Daugherty was released on a $3,000 bond.

His case is being prosecuted by the 10th Judicial District Attorney General’s office after the local office asked the 10th district to oversee the case.

On Nov. 5, Assistant District Attorney General Shari Lynn Tayloe filed the motion to take another look at Daughetry’s bail.

When he accumulated the new set of charges Daugherty’s actions demonstrated he didn’t “intend to abide by the orders of the Court,” the motion said. Citing state law, Tayloe said the judge had the discretion to revoke the former police officer’s bond once the new charges were filed.

In the event, the court doesn’t revoke the bond, prosecutors want it increased.

Daugherty was on the Campbell County General Sessions Docket Tuesday. He was scheduled for arraignment on DUI, violation of the implied consent law and speeding.

Jeff Coller, his attorney, appeared on his behalf. The case was reset for Dec. 9 and will be heard by a judge from outside Campbell County. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED 11/12/2026-6AM-IMAGE COURTESY OF NICK-YOUNGSON)
