Jailer admits actions on police tape By BURTON SPEAKMANGlasgow Daily Times The contact initially was like a joke, playing around, he said.
He did acknowledge multiple times the women had told him no, but stated he felt it was in a joking manner. “As a boss I may have been intimidating them and didn’t know it,” Cox said. The contact could occur anywhere in the jail as long as Cox was alone with one of the women. Cox stated he couldn’t seem to stop the contact. Cox said he did stop the contact after listening to a sermon in his church about “miracles in your life.” It was at that point he realized he needed a miracle to stop his actions. “I let the Devil get to me on a weakness I didn’t know I had,” he said. Cox blamed a lot of stress at the jail and spent a lot of time questioning the motives of the complainants. He also stated during the interview he had spoken with all the women involved about what had occurred. “Their memory of it is certainly different than mine, but it don’t really have any effect on what I’ve done,” Cox said. One of the women stated that she had been saying no for a year, he said. “You weren’t making it that plain to me,” Cox stated. “In my mind maybe she should have been more adamant and maybe in her mind she may have been afraid I was going to do her job.” Cox acknowledged that he was the person in charge should have known better professionally and morally. He also stated that he would have been willing to go beyond touching with one of the women. “I was very attracted to her.” In another incident he couldn’t understand why one woman had gotten so upset because she had a reputation for going with men at conferences and the actions didn’t seem to bother her at the time, Cox said in the interview. During the interview while talking about one woman he said, “she was the one who had shown her breasts so I didn’t think it was any big deal to rub them.” Cox said he told the women he was sorry for what he had done, but that none of his actions had been malicious. He stated most of the women seemed to forgive him, but there was one who wouldn’t speak with him.
