What happen to TCSO notifications?

Dear Editor,

True colors are continuing to be shown.

Over the past several years I have grown accustomed to services provided by the Troup County Sheriff’s Office. At one time the notifications of items such as crimes, traffic accidents and inclement weather was done by TCSO via they’re Facebook page or Nixle.

Since the election in August the notices have all but stopped. It was a Nixle notification the night of the 2010 tornado around the Whitesville Road and Hamilton Road area that had me and my family in a closet during the middle of the night. We live about 1-2 miles from its path.

Over the past month we have been under two tornado watches and have not received a word of notification from TCSO. I know the outgoing Sheriff is upset at his defeat but why take it out on the citizens of Troup County by basically taking your ball and going home is beyond me.

The office of Sheriff and department is there to serve and protect the people of Troup County not to serve one man. I would love to see these notifications start back up for the protection and safety of Troup County citizens. Thank you,

Chad Daniel

The " who gives a flip anymore" sentiment has taken over at the top of the Sheriff's Department leadership and it is glaringly obvious even for the most casual observer. Command folks being absent from duty at the office during regular duty hours (while still on the clock), drug money being spent hand over fist for the sake of getting revenge, services like the writer mentioned in his letter being stopped. Strong evidence of abandonment of a duty post could be collected with just a small invetigation conducted by Chairman Wolf or Todd Tentler should they decide to finally actually care about the citizens here that truly depend upon and pay taxes for these services. It is a shame that the duty bound honest deputies are stuck dealing with a grown man behaving so vindictive and childish...folks around here nearly had a stroke when the NFL replacement Refs were doing so badly but, I guess its just okay here to pay for sub-par police work with absent leadership, after all its just life and death no big deal! Call LPD or GSP if ya need help while the TCSD runs on 5 cylinders!They do have purty new cars though!
