Jaw-dropping moment on-duty cop began kissing elementary teacher in her classroom before having sex with her
Brian Gilley was barred from ever returning to law enforcement in Tennessee after Lebanon Police Department concluded an internal investigation into his relationship with teacher Shelby Moss on school property at Castle Heights Elementary School.
Extraordinary body worn camera captured part of the tryst, including the moment a student walks into the room about two minutes before the pair lock lips.
Gilley had previously worked on the D.A.R.E. program educating students on drug prevention, WZTV reported.
The incident in question took place in September 2024. Gilley later accepted that students may have still been on campus at the time.
The body camera footage is not linked to the September incident which ultimately led to Gilley's resignation.
While he initially denied the sexual conduct, he ultimately admitted it and resigned shortly after.
Teacher Moss was reportedly in a relationship at the time of the affair with Gilley, according to an investigative report.
In April 2025, Gilley pleaded for leniency, telling the board of his decertification hearing: 'I know I've done wrong, but I've also impacted that community in so many ways.'
He was ultimately permanently banned from serving in law enforcement again in the state of Tennessee.
Moss received a two-day suspension and later resigned.
A spokesperson for the school district said: 'The Lebanon Special School District expects all employees to uphold the highest standards of professional conduct at all times.
'In December of 2024 we were made aware that a teacher engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a police officer after hours while on campus.
'The District immediately conducted a thorough investigation and took appropriate disciplinary action in line with our policies and procedures.
'We want to assure our families and community that we take all concerns seriously and act promptly to maintain a safe and respectful learning environment for everyone.'
And Mike Justice, Chief of Police at the Lebanon Police Department, said: 'Upon receiving a complaint on former officer Brian Gilley, our staff committed to an immediate internal investigation.
'During the investigation, several issues, including serious policy violations, were identified. The policy violations also included being untruthful during the inquiry.
'While Gilley's actions did not align with our department's standards or policies, the conduct was not criminal in nature, did NOT involve children, and did NOT occur in the presence of children or in the classroom.
'We hold our officers to the highest standards of professionalism and integrity. Gilley's actions fell short of those expectations that our community demands and deserves.'

Drug prevention officer exposed by his own bodycam after it records video of his affair with married school teacher
A Tennessee police officer who taught drug prevention to children was betrayed by his own bodycam after it captured him having an affair with a school teacher. Brian Gilley, who has since been dismissed from the Lebanon Police Department, is accused of engaging in sexual activity with Shelby Moss inside school property while on duty. The bodyworn footage, obtained by WZTV, showed the pair kissing in a classroom in August 2024, moments after a child leaves the room. The video was blurred to hide the youngster's identity. Moss worked at the Castle Heights Elementary School, in Lebanon, and Gilley had been assigned to work there as a Drug Abuse Resistance Education officer. The Lebanon Police Department said that a month later in September, another incident took place after classes had ended, during which the two engaged in sexual activity – though there is no footage of that incident. Gilley later said he was unsure whether any students were still on school grounds at the time. According to Fox, Gilley denied the allegations in an internal interview, telling investigators that no sexual contact occurred while he was on duty. But he later admitted to the relationship and resigned soon after. During a decertification hearing in April 2025, Gilley asked for forgiveness, saying: 'I know I've done wrong, but I've also impacted that community in so many ways. It was a mistake and it will never happen again.' He added he was 'very embarrassed' by his conduct. In May 2025, the Tennessee Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission voted to decertify Gilley, who is now barred from serving in law enforcement in the state. In a statement, Lebanon Police Department Chief, Mike Justice, said: 'While Gilley's actions did not align with our department's standards or policies, the conduct was not criminal in nature, did NOT involve children, and did NOT occur in the presence of children or in the classroom. ' 'We hold our officers to the highest standards of professionalism and integrity. Gilley's actions fell short of those expectations that our community demands and deserves.' LPD reported that Moss was married at the time of this relationship with Gilley. She received a two-day suspension earlier this year but later resigned in May. A spokesperson for the Lebanon Special School District told Fox Nashville that the district had been made aware 'that a teacher engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a police officer after hours while on campus,' in December 2024. 'The District immediately conducted a thorough investigation and took appropriate disciplinary action in line with our policies and procedures,' the spokesperson said. 'We want to assure our families and community that we take all concerns seriously and act promptly to maintain a safe and respectful learning environment for everyone."
