Mayor Kelvin Owens, former Camilla election superintendent Rhunette Williford and former deputy election superintendent (and current city manager) Cheryl Ford were indicted by a Mitchell County grand jury Wednesday on election interference charges.

A former DeKalb County police officer who killed an unarmed mentally-ill Black Afghanistan veteran in 2015 won’t serve any more time in prison, according to a plea deal entered Wednesday. Robert “Chip” Olsen, who appeared via Zoom for the virtual hearing, entered a negotiated plea on the same aggravated assault charge that was overturned by the Georgia Court of Appeals in March 2024. As part of his plea agreement, Olsen was sentenced to 15 years, with 12 of those to serve in prison.
