two charges
By Marione Martin An estranged husband is accused of breaking into a police officer’s house, in addition to domestic abuse. According to documents on file, Cherokee Police Chief David Butler received a complaint from Nancy Mathis on Sept. 9 about 7 p.m. She said that her estranged husband, Jessie Mathis, called her saying he was at the residence of Tyler Flaherty, a Cherokee police officer, and that he wanted to talk to her right then. When she arrived, Jessie was upset and started yelling at her. He presented a pair of underwear that he said he had removed from Flaherty’s residence and claimed they belonged to Nancy. She said Jessie grabbed her, pulling her from her truck and throwing her against the truck, leaving marks on her arms and back. He told her he was going to beat the shit out of Flaherty. Then he later made a phone call to her stating he would kill himself. Nancy said when Jessie pulled her from the truck, her children were across the street watching the situation as it unfolded. Jessie Lee Mathis, 30, of Cherokee, has been charged with breaking and entering and with domestic abuse in the presence of a child, both misdemeanor filings.
