Add The New York Post on Google The married police officer who filmed himself having sex with another cop inside a middle school completely ignored the disgrace in an interview — while hypocritically blasting other officers for having “tainted the badge.”
Metropolitan Nashville Police Sgt. Stephen Holland was busted having a fling with school resource officer Lisa Vidrios last year after Vidrios’ husband — who is also on the force — discovered the raunchy videos on her phone.
Holland ignored the scandal in a nearly three-hour podcast interview he gave months after the investigation started into his tryst — but before it was widely exposed — to blast other officers as “pieces of sh–t” bringing disgrace to his profession.
“There’s some guys that have tainted the badge,” Holland told former Navy SEAL Andy Stumpf on his Cleared Hot podcast in August 2025, newly resurfaced clips show.

Stephen Holland said on a podcast last year that he and his wife had rediscovered their Christian faith. @ClearedHotPodcast/YouTube “There are some guys that don’t do police work for the right reason. Their hearts are not in it. But mine is. That’s why I’m in it. I’m just going to do the best I can,” he added.
Holland also revealed on the podcast that he and his wife had just recently rediscovered their Christian faith.
“I believe the devil was trying to keep me from rekindling that relationship [with God],” said the SWAT veteran who claims to suffer PTSD and anxiety.
“I’m encouraging my wife to start rekindling her [connection to God] so she’s getting into it. So now we have started taking our kids to church,” he said.
The disgraced cop is married to Tiffany Holland, 43, a respected business development officer who is well-known in the local community, the Daily Mail reported.
Vidrios, 37, resigned after she admitted to hooking up with Holland at least four times inside Madison Middle School while serving as a school resource officer in May 2025.
Lisa Vidrios resigned after her husband came forward and reported the affair to the department.

Another clip showed the pair performing oral sex on each other inside a Metro Police vehicle – where, Vidrios later admitted, they were intimate on at least two occasions while on duty, according to investigators.
Twisted text messages recovered by the OPA also show the duo discussing cameras inside a school parking garage, where at least one of the raunchy meet-ups occurred April 16, 2025, according to disciplinary records.
The affair was first reported to authorities by Vidrios’ husband, who is also a member of the MNPD.
Vidrios and Holland were immediately taken off their posts and removed from all police access May 26, 2025, when the department learned of the allegations, according to the MNPD.
While under investigation for the affair, Holland was granted an injured-on-duty pension in February 2026, which made investigators unable to interview him.
