Left to right: Scott Wright, Katy Givens and Kelly Turner … the TCOES “team of experts”.

Katy Givens, Esq.

Katy Givens is a Cedar Bluff, Alabama native and Jacksonville State University graduate. As of April 2026, she is also a graduate of the Birmingham School of Law and a practicing attorney.

Katy is not the tallest member of our team of experts, but she is absolutely the one person without whom the show could not go on.

Seriously. She’s the only one who knows how to operate the sound board.

Kelly Turner

Kelly Turner is a Centre, Alabama native and graduate of Auburn University, but don’t ask her how the football team is doing these days.

Kelly has a BA in Psychology with a minor in Criminology from Auburn, and an MS in Psychology from Jacksonville State University. 

She is the mother of two lovely children, Katie and Nate, and the wife of local businessman Kevin Turner, who is … not as lovely.

True Crime on Easy Street was Kelly’s creation and to this very day, whenever she yells “Jump!” Katy and Scott ask “Why are you yelling?”

Scott Wright

Scott is the managing editor of the Cherokee Post-Herald, a weekly newspaper in Centre, Alabama. He has been a mediocre journalist for nearly three decades. Ask around.

Scott is the author of two books about local history. He lives in Cedar Bluff, Alabama with his dogs, a massive pile of books and a well-chewed (by aforementioned dogs) TV remote control.

Scott is a 1993 graduate of the University of Alabama, but he misplaced his diploma years ago so please don’t ask to see it.
