Two Paulding County Sheriff’s deputies filed an answer in a GCO member’s case against them for arresting him for carrying a concealed weapon when he was openly carrying (with a GFL).  The answer and the original complaint may be viewed here.

GCO member Luke Woodard has filed a federal lawsuit against two Paulding County sheriff’s deputies that arrested him for carrying a concealed weapon and disorderly conduct while he was openly carrying at a convenience store.  Remarkably, Woodard was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon when a “man with a gun” call was placed to 911 from witnesses who saw his sidearm from across the street. The deputies were unable to articulate any conduct in their report that was disorderly.  The Paulding County District Attorney dismissed the charges without presenting them to a grand jury or filing an accusation.  A copy of the complaint may be viewed here.
