Individual Dies at Jasper Jail

A individual was found dead at the Jasper County Jail on the morning of February 2, and when The News learned the information, from the 911 reports, we questioned the sheriff’s office.

The reply was the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) is investigating so talk to them. Calls were not returned last week, but on Monday the fifth phone call was answered. Special agent in charge, Mary Chandler, said it is an active investigation so little information is available. When asked for at least a name, she agreed to send what she could, and was informed of the newspaper’s deadline. As of 11:30 a.m. yesterday, Feb. 12, no information had been received.
