– Loganville-Grayson Patch

 found out the hard way about the dangers of social media.

Thaddeus Lloyd, a deputy with WCSO, has been suspended pending an investigation into a racy photo that showed up on social media sites years after being taken. The picture reportedly shows Lloyd, in uniform, next to a patrol cruiser with his hands on the buttocks of a naked woman.

The information surfaced during an Channel 2 News Special on several instances of "Cops Gone Wild." Lloyd told Channel 2 he and another Clarkston police officer were off duty when they posed for the picture with "some porn star." The picture was reportedly found on a illegal cell phone confiscated from an inmate.

Lloyd was reportedly suspended last week when the Georgia Peace Officer Standards and Training Council informed WCSO that an investigation had been initiated.

-- Athens Patch

Athens Mayor Nancy Denson didn't discover the theft of sentimental pieces of jewelry from her home until possibly months after the items were taken, according to an interview in Athens Patch.  

When she noticed her husband's watch and class ring, and her diamond earrings had disappeared, she filed a burglary report with the Athens-Clarke County Police Department.

Denson says she received numerous vistors when she injured her leg last year and, “there’s no one I would point a finger at.”

-- Barrow Patch

A employee recently reported a liquid substance that appeared to be chili or soup had been thrown onto one of the store's front windows.

That incident, reported to the Barrow County Sheriff's Office on Feb. 9, 2012, followed another in which a dead rabbit with a gunshot wound to its head was found outside the store's front door. 

The complainant asked that the incidents be documented in the event others occur and requested extra patrol during night time hours in light of the recent vandalism.
