did, along with others, to solve this crime and give members of our community peace of mind.”
Wonderful! Throw the book at the scum.
my sincere thanks to Detective Mardis and the entire CGPD for all their hard work. If we don’t act aggressively, these criminals only escalate to bigger crimes. These are the same people responsible for the riot at the Capitol on January 6. Please publicize this crime everywhere and anywhere you can.
Again, Thank you VERY much.
