Last May the Underground received the following e-mail. That message (with identifying details removed) is posted below:

Have heard rumors that Be Be Heiskell has had minor traffic accidents and recently was driven home from the Chick. Taco Bell in the wee hours of the morning and intoxicated, the transportation was by the county. Have you anything like this?
Wish to be anonymous. Thanks
We replied to the message and asked for any additional details, receiving the following answer:

My understanding is that the incident was not the Taco Bell, but the Huddle House in Chickamauga, if I understand right this happened this past Saturday or early Sunday. I believe it was Sheriff’s deputies that may have been summoned by the Huddle House employees.
As to any other car incidents, don’t know specific, but did hear she had her personal vehicle repaired at the counties’ expense.
The Underground receives similar tips in e-mail all the time, and most are unusable rumors or information we already have. But this was something different, and the anonymous source is someone known to be trustworthy. We felt it deserved a bit of a followup and deployed a researcher to see if there was any truth behind the story.
