In crime news, Murray County sheriff's Captain Michael Henderson has pleaded guilty for helping to set up the arrest of a woman who complained about sexual advances made by a local judge.
Henderson could face 20 years in federal prison, even though the frame job didn't originate with him.
Angela Garmley filed an ethics complaint against Judge Bryant Cochran last July, saying he asked her into his chambers to be his mistress and sent her an inappropriate text message.
Her complaint sparked a state investigation, and led to Cochran's resignation, but not before Garmley was pulled over in a traffic stop where police found a can of meth hidden in the wheel of her car.
When the Georgia Bureau of Investigation found out the drug had been planted, charges against Garmley were dismissed.
