House Republicans Honor Fallen TBI Special Agent With Passage Of House Bill 482

A bill sponsored by House Republicans honoring fallen Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) Special Agent De’Greaun Reshun Frazier unanimously passed in the House Chamber this week.

House Bill 482 designates the future home of the TBI Crime Lab & Consolidated Headquarters in Madison County to be named the ‘Special Agent De’Greaun ReShun Frazier TBI Crime Lab & Regional Headquarters’.

Special Agent Frazier was shot and killed during an undercover drug operation in Jackson on Aug. 9, 2016. He is the first and only TBI agent ever to be killed in the line of duty. Frazier’s name will now be immortalized in the bureau’s history and serve as a reminder of the ultimate sacrifice he made.

Before joining the TBI, Frazier also served as a member of the local Drug Enforcement Administration Task Force for the Millington Police Department, as well as a reserve deputy for the Shelby County Sherriff’s Department. He was also a police officer for the University of Memphis and for Southwest Tennessee Community College.
