Summary

For this edition of the Court TV Podcast we have another audio version of the Court TV True Crime show Someone They Knew with Tamron Hall. This week’s episode entitled Who Shot the Sheriff. They say politics is a dirty game, but in Dekalb County, Georgia late in 2000 it became deadly when someone gunned down Sheriff-elect Derwin Brown in front of his home just days before he was to be sworn into office. A life-long law enforcement officer it would be easy to assume he was targeting by someone out for revenge --- and that indeed proved to be the case, but it wasn’t an ex-con. It was the man Brown beat in that election to be the county sheriff. Someone They Knew with Tamron Hall airs Sunday nights at 9pm eastern. You can find out more about the show and upcoming episodes on CourtTV.com. To watch Court TV’s gavel to gavel coverage of Georgia vs. Sydney Dorsey, click here.
