FLOCKING AROUND WITH A PLAINTIFF

Imagine suing a law enforcement agency for excessive force, only to discover someone from that SAME agency has been keeping technological tabs on you!

Well, meet Tyler Murkerson.

On February 6, 2023, Coweta County Sheriff’s deputies arrested Murkerson at a gas station. Body-camera footage captured deputies taking him to the ground and tasing him.

His criminal charges were DISMISSED.

In September 2024, Murkerson filed a federal lawsuit accusing deputies of excessive force. Then things became even more interesting.

While that was pending, Murkerson began to feel like somebody was watching him. Specifically, LAW ENFORCEMENT! He said deputies started popping up everywhere.

He checked his license plate through a website providing Flock surveillance audit information.

He found himself entangled in FIVE SEARCHES!

According to his new federal lawsuit, sheriff’s office personnel searched his plate FIVE TIMES over 197 days in 2025.

The searches reportedly involved a surveillance network spanning more than 6,000 law enforcement cameras nationwide.

The listed search justifications included “INFO” and “37.”

On October 8, 2026, Murkerson filed another federal lawsuit naming Coweta County, Sheriff Lenn Wood, deputies William and Randall Faulkner, and Flock Safety.

He alleges unconstitutional and .

It doesn’t stop there, though…

The complaint also references an internal Flock audit and THREE sheriff’s office employees who resigned before it was completed.

The lawsuit seeks CLASS-ACTION STATUS, potentially including other Georgians whose plates were improperly searched.

The Sheriff’s Office declined to comment, citing pending litigation.

We have ALWAYS known Sheriff Lenn Wood to be a great sheriff and his deputies to do great work. It’s disappointing when allegations of misconduct reflect on the good men and women who work hard every day to do the right thing.

We will continue to follow this case.

WHO KILLED MELISSA WOLFENBARGER?

Reformers, this unsolved murder will leave you scratching your head.

Melissa Wolfenbarger was 21 years old, married, and a mother of two when she disappeared in late 1998.

Her mother, Norma Patton, reported her missing. Her husband, Christopher Wolfenbarger, did not.

According to investigators, Christopher said he and Melissa had argued and she left.

Next thing you know, on April 29, 1999, a severed head was discovered inside a black trash bag near Avon Avenue in Atlanta.

A little over a month later, on June 3, more severed remains were found in the same area, also inside black trash bags.

It was not until March 14, 2003, that the remains were positively identified as Melissa’s.

A mother disappears after an with her husband, her mother reports her missing, years later her remains are found, and the case becomes an unsolved .

APD started digging again. Investigators reinterviewed witnesses, revisited evidence, and conducted DNA testing.

Twenty-five years after Melissa’s remains were discovered, APD arrested her husband in August 2024 and charged him with her murder.

Case closed? NOPE.

Christopher went to trial and was acquitted in 2025.

Reformers, what do YOU think?

Do you believe investigators arrested the right person but could not prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt?

Do you believe someone else killed Melissa?

Is there still a piece of this story nobody has uncovered?

This family has more questions than answers, but we all want to know:

Who killed and dismembered Melissa Wolfenbarger?

Did someone see who threw her remains away?

Does someone remember a conversation about this case that stood out?

Is someone holding on to a secret or key piece of ?

We want to know.

If you have ANY information regarding Melissa’s murder, no matter how small you think it may be, and you are afraid to speak up, send it to us.

We will speak on your behalf.

Any information we receive will be forwarded to the Atlanta Police Department and Crime Stoppers.

Solving crimes often lies in the hands of the community.

Let’s work together as a community by TELLING WHO DID THIS!

THANK YOU, APD

Often when we discuss the City of Atlanta Police Department, it is because something needs to be addressed.

However, today, we are saying thank you.

Reform Room Solutions Group has two independent cases involving APD personnel. We were retained by the families of Devon Anderson Jr. and Investigator Aubree Horton.

In Anderson’s case, we provide independent review and involving Officer Melvin Potter, who killed Anderson on August 5, 2024. Before that killing, Potter already had a concerning disciplinary and criminal record. Yet, 2 years and 2 months later, the administrative investigation remains pending. Captain Towns-Massol sent us a certified-mail update confirming it remains ongoing.

We are also investigating what led to Investigator Horton’s state of distress before his death while advocating for Douglas County to correct its false burglary narrative.

That case has layers and barriers we work daily to tear down. Without divulging too much, we identified circumstances that appear connected to several policy violations involving multiple APD officers. We recently received a 60-day OPS update, and that investigation remains ongoing.

APD and Reform Room may not have started on the best foot, but policies appear to be followed, is being provided, a standard appears to have been set, and information is being shared. That is all we can ask.

We cannot tell APD what to do, and we aren’t trying to. However, we are advocating for Potter’s . Based on his conduct in totality, we agree with Councilmember Kelsea Bond, who described him as an extremely dangerous man she would not trust to protect anyone in Atlanta. His conduct does not support the role of a police officer.

As for Investigator Horton, we are asking for answers, , and, if a crime is identified, a referral to the GBI for criminal investigation and possible arrest.

We were loud calling APD out, so we will be just as loud saying:

THANK YOU, APD.

Reformers, in the meantime, we will keep you updated.

We are the reform partner YOUR community deserves.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: DEKALB COUNTY JAIL INMATES FILMED A MUSIC VIDEO

Reformers, today is Friday, so we’re taking it back for a little flashback!

We’ve been doing a lot of flashing BACK to sprint FORWARD, so PAY ATTENTION!

Do you see this music video? Rappers doing what rappers do… You would think this video was authorized, right?

NOPE!

About a year ago, DeKalb County inmates used contraband to film themselves a whole RAP VIDEO inside the DeKalb County Jail!

And the worst part? THEY CAN’T EVEN RAP! 😂

Now, we’re not here to critique anybody’s musical aspirations. We have been discussing , jail security, deteriorating infrastructure, and the occurring inside this facility.

This little Flashback Friday is another piece of a much bigger conversation.

So remember this, because we are about to switch topics. We will save DeKalb’s chronicles for next week.

Standby.

HAPPY HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY, INVESTIGATOR AUBREE HORTON

Today, Reform Room Solutions Group recognizes the birthday of Atlanta Police Department Investigator Aubree Horton.

Happy heavenly birthday, Horton.

During his career, Investigator Horton helped bring answers to victims and their families. Today, Reform Room Solutions Group remains dedicated to seeking the about what happened to him and what caused him to be in such a state of distress that he was running for his life, calling out for .

We will continue advocating for Sheriff Tim Pounds and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office to correct their burglary narrative surrounding Horton.

However, today is about honoring Horton, his service, his true , and the lives he positively impacted throughout his career.

In honor of Investigator Aubree Horton’s birthday, Reform Room Solutions Group will dedicate the remainder of today to silence.

Happy heavenly birthday, Investigator Horton.

DEKALB COMMISSIONERS… WHERE THE MONEY AT?

Remember the December 2025 at the DeKalb County Jail?

If not, LOOK AT THE VIDEO FOOTAGE!

On December 21, 2025, Stevenson Charles, Yusuf Minor and Naod Yohannes, escaped from the DeKalb County Jail after compromising part of the facility.

The three were discovered missing during a routine security check. They reportedly used contraband and weaknesses in a deteriorating building to escape on a FLORIDA road trip!

The three used outside assistance to arrange a Lyft, allegedly the driver and forced her to drive.

The three inmates were apprehended in Broward County.

During this time, Sheriff Melody Maddox was , acknowledging the aging jail’s deterioration and maintaining its security would require MONEY.

Which brings us to another part of our investigation.

Reformants are telling us the jail is LITERALLY falling apart, and inmates are using metal from deteriorating parts of the facility to manufacture SHANKS!

Remember, Anthony Smith was injured with a shank. Addo-Wright was killed during an inmate stabbing with a shank. We are working on another recent story about a shanking.

According to Reformants, the building is the shank supplier!

In an upcoming sit-down interview with A.B., a former inmate will discuss uncomfortable encounters with law enforcement, as well as their experience inside the DeKalb County Jail.

This conversation will take us beyond Sheriff Maddox and into the business of the DeKalb County Commissioners!

Inmates are pointing fingers at correctional officers.

Correctional officers are pointing fingers at leadership.

The community is pointing fingers at Sheriff Maddox.

We told you all to be careful pointing fingers in DeKalb. You might LOSE ONE!

Nevertheless, we have questions for those holding Sheriff Maddox’s purse strings.

How can Sheriff Maddox effectively maintain the jail if the funding necessary to repair the deteriorating building isn’t being made available? And who is responsible for making sure those funds get where they need to go?

COMMISSIONERS… 👀

We believe in following MONEY TRAILS!

WHERE THE MONEY AT?

Standby.

THE VAN WOULD NOT LET THEM OUT!

Remember Sheriff Reginald Scandrett’s 47-page lawsuit against Henry County Government? Well, we figured we would bring an incident to you all’s attention, just in case you didn’t know.

Three inmates took a trip to court and ended up with an extended stay inside a county-owned transportation van!

We can’t make this stuff up…

According to paragraph 98 of Scandrett’s , on September 8, 2026, three being transported from Henry County Jail to Superior Court became inside a van for nearly an hour due to a malfunctioning locking mechanism!

Now, imagine being transported to court, only to find yourself stuck inside the vehicle because the doors won’t operate properly.

The inmates were supposed to be going to court, but they couldn’t because the van was lollygagging in the parking lot!

Scandrett claims the van was subsequently taken out of service, leaving the Henry County Sheriff’s Office with only ONE operable inmate transportation van.

Scandrett is pointing the finger at Henry County Government, claiming the County repeatedly refused funding for replacement vehicles despite warnings about the Sheriff’s Office’s aging fleet.

Since Henry County Government and Sheriff Scandrett are apparently beefing, we wonder what else is happening on the taxpayers’ dollar.

Just know this Henry County bleed is going to be a long bleed that will bleed over for the next few weeks. It’s A LOT!

Standby.

LAST TIME HE TALKED HE GOT SUSPENDED.

Remember Sergeant Stiggers, the supervisor Correctional Officer Trakita Westfield reportedly went to Internal Affairs to complain about this week? Remember he was falsely accused of sending us these body-cam videos?

Well, we have another body-cam video starring him… He’s telling everything he can tell, too!

Sergeant Stiggers discussed his interactions with Westfield and explained why he wanted nothing more to do with her because she was manipulative.

According to Stiggers, Westfield showed him messages between her and MARRIED MAN Sheriff Levon Allen about her being upset with the Sheriff over something involving earrings she wanted back.

However, what caught our attention was WHY Stiggers said he chose not to get involved.

“I didn’t say nothing because the last time I had information about that, I got SUSPENDED.”

That’s right, A SERGEANT says he was previously suspended after having information about a situation involving Westfield and the Sheriff…

We will dig a little later to see what that situation was about. 👀

In the meantime, is Sheriff Allen over there suspending folks over his LOVE CONNECTIONS?

That suspension must’ve been like Miranda because it definitely has Stiggers wanting to remain silent.

How does an inmate turned correctional officer end up in a position where a SERGEANT is afraid to speak out because he believes her words to the Sheriff have DISCIPLINARY POWER?

Also, why are so many love triangles connected to this MARRIED MAN?

We have been discussing reports of , and within Sheriff Allen’s administration.

Now you can hear it yourself… A supervisor describing his reluctance to speak out after a previous suspension, and he speaks about it as if it was RETALIATION.

Also, in this body-cam video, Stiggers can be heard briefly discussing BUYING HIS OWN UNIFORMS.

That statement has Reform Room digging into the MONEY TRAILS, and WE HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW AND TELL.

Standby…

In the meantime, Stiggers, if you are watching… In a previous post, we included some attorney resources. We are not telling you what to do, we are just letting you know what’s available.

WATCH WHERE YOU POINT THOSE FINGERS IN DEKALB COUNTY JAIL!

⚠️VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED

After everything Reform Room Solutions Group released last week about the DeKalb County Jail’s , staff , , and conditions, we are sure there is plenty of finger-pointing going on!

However, you might want to be careful pointing fingers inside that jail because inmates have some SHARP shanks!

In 2024, during an inmate-on-inmate dispute, an inmate reportedly entered the DeKalb County Jail with 10 fingers but left with NINE!

YES, REFORMERS! An inmate reportedly had his finger CUT OFF during an altercation with another inmate!

These photos were provided to us by a DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office Reformer who was employed there at the time.

Now, imagine how sharp a makeshift weapon would have to be to sever someone’s finger!

We have already shown you the filth, feces-covered toilets, gang-controlled phones, and weapons being recovered inside the jail.

Next week, we will begin showing you more of the GORE.

There are some VERY bloody photos coming, but we can almost guarantee you that what we have from DeKalb County Jail is not worse than what we have in our files from their kissing cousins over at the Clayton County Jail!

We plan to open those files this winter.

DeKalb County, keep those fingers accounted for. There was a history of stabbings long before Addo-Wright was killed.

We are still unpacking!

HENRY COUNTY JAIL MAY BE CLEAN, BUT THERE’S A HISTORY OF DYING INMATES.

The other day, we gave the Henry County Sheriff’s Office its flowers after receiving positive feedback from our Henry County SO Reformers. Flowers are nice, but families are still mourning loved ones who died after entering that .

Reform Room Solutions Group identified eight deaths connected to Henry County Jail during Sheriff Reginald Scandrett’s administration.

In May 2026, Quentin J. Fennell, 40, died following a reported medical emergency.

In February 2025, a 48-year-old woman was found unresponsive during a safety check.

In April 2024, Sterling Jamal Williams, 30, was found with a sheet around his neck.

In March 2024, an inmate died after being found unresponsive in his cell.

In February 2024, Cameron Moore, 47, died following a medical emergency and hospital transfer.

In January 2024, Donte Battle, 24, was found unresponsive and died.

In November 2023, Neiro L. Hardeman, 45, was found unresponsive during headcount.

In May 2023, an inmate died following injuries sustained during an April jail fight. Another inmate, Cameryn Crayton, was charged with .

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8… and a pattern of inmates being found unresponsive.

Why are inmates being found unresponsive and later dying?
