Cpl. Scott Corley, a 10-year veteran with the sheriff's department, shot and killed himself just before 8 p.m. at his home at 100 Fairforest Road, according to a statement released by the department.
An acquaintance told investigators that Corley placed a revolver to his head and mentioned the term "Russian roulette" prior to pulling the trigger, the statement said. Corley had removed all but one round from the revolver prior to the shooting.
Officials believe Corley was intoxicated at the time, the department said. He was killed at the scene.
