CORRECTIONS
During the parade coverage DeWayne Grice accidently recognized Karen Jones the newly appointed Probate Judge. He meant to say newly appointed Chief Magistrate Judge. She was accompanied by Magistrate Judge Lynn Sapp.
Probate Judge Lorna Deloach reached out and wanted me to clarify and let folks to know that she is still the Bulloch County's Probate Judge. We apologize for the misspeaking during the live parade coverage.
Bobby Durden is the Captain of the Motor Division not Bobby Ivey. Both Ivey and Durden are members of the division and both rode in the parade.
Also it is the Bulloch County Sheriff's Office not department.
