News on the (Dalton) complaints on filing false documents and violation of Georgia’s E-Verify for private employer laws.
Whitfield County Sheriff Scott Chitwood has declined to investigate [1] the complaints we sent regarding the City of Dalton [2] and restaurant owner Rep. Casey Carpenter [3]. On the phone, I was finally successful in convincing a clearly reluctant Sheriff Chitwood to forward my complaint to the GBI, as I had originally requested but since he received the carefully laid out electronic complaints from his staff in a printed format, he told me that is how he would forward the material to GBI.
I explained that the information necessary to understand my complaints could not be accessed unless the reader was using the electronic version.
I am now in the process of attempting to see action from the District Attorney for Whitfield County (Bert Poston [4]) and have sent that office the same electronic complaints with the below email with a copy sent to Diane Morgan, who I am told is the GBI Director’s [5] assistant. I have not recieved confirmation of receipt and am now calling both offices:
Dear District Attorney Poston,
Please see the attached complaint, which is #2 of two complaints I filed with Whitfield County Sheriff Scott Chitwood on September 29, 2020 with the request that he forward them to the GBI. Both complaints are also posted online on our website: complaint #2 here [3] , complaint #1 here [2].Please note that I am copying the assistant to GBI Director on this email.I request that your office forward my well-researched and sourced complaints to the GBI for further action.I have received a response from Sheriff Chitwood today and quote it in its entirety here: “Your complaint was received, but after reading over it, the Whitfield Co. Sheriffs’ Office would not oversee such a complaint. Your attention should be directed to the City of Dalton.” I also had a phone conversation with Sheriff Chitwood.I would be extremely grateful for a reply confirming your receipt of this email.Thank you,D.A. King
