According to the GBI, Tattnall County Chief Magistrate Judge Eddie Anderson, age 70, has been arrested and charged with one count of Terroristic Threats and one count of Violation of Oath by Public Officer.
On June 22, 2022, the GBI Regional Investigative Office in Statesboro, GA was requested by Tattnall County Sheriff Kyle Sapp to investigate allegations of theft, trespassing, and terroristic threats after an incident report was filed on the matter. Anderson allegedly entered the property of another citizen and took produce from his garden without permission. The homeowner called Anderson to discuss the issue and Anderson made a threat of violence against him in the presence of witnesses.
Anderson was arrested on July 25, 2022, turned himself into the Tattnall County Jail, and was released on his own recognizance.
This investigation is complete and will be given to the Atlantic Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office for prosecution.

I went to this judge for help when a toombs cnty man & his son came to my house in cobbtown brandishing a gun at 10:30pm. The police would not arrest the men. They were obviously all friends. The gun wasn’t registered to either men. The 1 officer told me to shut-up & go in my house when I told them I wanted them arrested for terristic threats , trespassing, etc. Went to judge next morning & he said he’d have to ask his officer what really happened & he’d contact me. Never heard anything. I got 911 cd. They were trying to stop me from getting it. Them are some dirty crooked police & judge! 💯
