Window
Tint Removed
Working
through the P.A.C.T program, Social Circle DPS has taken another
step toward removing barriers between the officers and the
public by removing the window tint on patrol cars. The
tint created a visual barrier and we want our citizens to know
that our officers are approachable and friendly.
Revised Spring and Summer P.A.C.T. Schedule
effective March 19, 2012
The Department of Public Safety has
reserved the community room for a standing P.A.C.T. meeting on
the third Monday of each month at 7:00 pm. For Spring and Summer,
we are combining the General Meeting and the Zone Meetings. All
citizens from all zones are welcomed and encouraged to
participate. Zone officers will be available to answer specific
zone questions.
P.A.C.T. meetings are a great way for
officers and citizens to share information, get to know each
other, and find out what's happening in particular
neighborhoods. Your zone officer can help you set up a
Neighborhood Watch Program and offer other services to improve
and enhance the quality of life in your neighborhood.
P.A.C.T. focuses on life within the
community and how the community can be proactive rather than
reactive against crime. We can work together to make life in
Social Circle the best it can be for all of us. Come join us in
our effort to maintain the best quality of life that is a
trademark of the Greatest Little Town in Georgia.

Two DeKalb County men have been arrested in connection with the
death of a third man whose body was discovered as firefighters
extinguished a brush fire in Social Circle, authorities said Friday.
Corey Thomas, 20, and Antonio Jones, 24, have been charged with
the murder of Akili Jabari Stewart, according to a news release from
the Social Circle Police Department and GBI.
The two agencies and the DeKalb County Police Department and
Georgia State Fire Marshal’s office have been investigating
Stewart’s death since March 30, officials said.
The 36-year-old victim’s body was found in a burning field late
the night of March 29 near Ga. 278 and I-20. Preliminary autopsy
results revealed that Stewart died of gunshot wounds.
A motive for the killing was not disclosed Friday.
