Former Summerville Police Chief Stan Mosley Passes Away

The community is mourning the loss of former Summerville Police Chief Stan Mosley, who passed away Thursday.

Chief Mosley served the City of Summerville as Chief of Police for 22 years and dedicated more than 33 years to law enforcement in Chattooga County.

His career began in 1988 with the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office after learning of an opening at the jail from his uncle, Ben Mosley. He was hired by then-Sheriff Gary McConnell as a tower guard, quickly rising through the ranks—first to booking officer within just two weeks, and then into patrol shortly after.

Those who worked alongside Mosley remember him as a leader and mentor. Chattooga County Sheriff Mark Schrader said, “I could never thank him enough for his guidance as I was starting my law enforcement career. I’m very thankful for our visit a few days ago. Rest in peace, my friend and mentor.”

Funeral arrangements for Chief Mosley are pending.
