two of the officers most closely tied to freeman's arrest left the sheriff's office in disgrace shortly thereafter. jacob haney, the sergeant on duty at the time of freeman's arrest, resigned after he was caught having an on-duty affair with a flowery branch policewoman. mike lusk, the officer who arrested freeman, was himself arrested for an unrelated "invasion of privacy" charge on may 22, 2015 after a gbi investigation and was released on a $10,000 bond.
