Facts of the story:
Sergeant Dan Lang, the same sergeant who stole 43 guns from evidence and was transferred to the jail, was also the supervisor on duty at the time of Shali Tilson’s death. Tilson’s death came as a result of no oversight while he was placed on suicide watch. Sergeant Dan Lang falsified the 15-minute watch log to cover up wrongdoing on his part by not conducting the 15-minute checks that the Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office policy states must be done. To make matters worse, Eric J Levett and his administration had the lead investigator over the case removed after the investigator found multiple policy violations on the part of Dan Lang and others. Dan Lang ultimately resigned instead of being fired.
