2 Pelham Officers Quit Over Corruption Allegations
PELHAM, Ga. - Two police officers in Pelham have quit their jobs rather than face charges that they were involved in illegal gambling.
Pelham Police Investigator Rod Williams told WALB-TV that Capt. Linda Coliman and Sgt. Mary Johnson decided to resign their posts. It spared them possible prosecution over allegations that they worked security at an illegal gambling operation outside a gas station.
Coliman and Johnson were not charged with a crime, and they denied wrongdoing. A man who answered the phone at Coliman's home said she didn't want to talk. A phone listing for Johnson could not be located.
The case came to light last month when Pelham police arrested four men for running a gambling operation that looked like a mobile caival.
