Don't let you get on my traffic
stop again. I will arrest you.
Do it buddy and we're gonna do it.
Millions watched this heated
confrontation between a Georgia sheriff
and police Sergeant and now 11 alive
viewers are coming forward saying
there's more where that came from.
11 alive investigator Kristen
Crowley has new video of the Towns
County Sheriff arguing with another
driver and that's not all Kristen
and Jennifer. We also obtained a
secret recording in which the sheriff
calls Hiawassee police his enemy and
we tracked down a former Sheriff's
Office employee who explains why.
But first we start with that new video.
Of what a driver called a
needless and scary traffic stop.
You could very well be in good shape
here if you quit running your mouth,
they're on camera is a familiar face.
Remember this video.
Both show Towns County Sheriff
Ken Henderson, but this video
wasn't caught on police body Cam.
It was recorded by this man Joshua Kramer
and come up to us extremely
rageful very angry.
Kramer says his family was on their
way to church in May when a black
SUV tried to get into their lane and
I had to slam on my brakes.
So I threw my hands up.
I didn't, I didn't know it was a
cop until he got in front of me.
Henderson wasn't in a squad
car and he wasn't in uniform.
He pulled Kramer over with flashing
police lights in his unmarked car.
When did you start recording? It
was right after he come up and and said,
let's see if we can't get you a ticket.
Me and the wife both. Just had a gut
feeling that something was wrong.
This isn't how this is supposed to go.
You acting like
a moron back
there. I'm being cooperative as I can be.
My kids are terrified because of
the the anger that he's putting
through my window. My wife's crying.
My baby starting to cry all because
of I guess throwing up my hands.
I think I saw it.
Another Kramer says the sheriff,
who never identified himself,
calmed down after seeing
he was being recorded,
but it was after seeing our
first reports that Cramer
decided to come forward.
Somebody with that much power and
that much anger. We just wanted
to show people the real him.
Kramer's not the only one
speaking up when you saw
that video of the sheriff
interacting with the police Sergeant,
did it surprise you? Honestly, no.
During our investigation,
we tracked down a former
Sheriff's Office employee who
asked we keep them anonymous.
They still live in town and say
they fear retaliation. Would you
say that he was the main reason
you left the former worker
also told us the sheriff had a rule
not to speak with Hiawassee police
that if we were caught socializing with
them then you know we would be in trouble.
What kind of trouble? Basically
we would get our butts chewed out.
While you're in uniform working for money,
that's exactly what happened in
this secret recording obtained by
11 alive between the sheriff and
some of his employees who were
having lunch with Hiawassee police.
The sheriff accused them of
talking about him behind his back.
About myself before I'll be disrespected
by people that work for me and
I'm sorry I know I'm acting crazy.
I'm this. I've never been so damn mad.
20 minutes into the secret recording,
the sheriff says this, but
let me ask you, are you gonna hang
out all the time with my enemies?
I would hope that you know
something could be done about
the way he acted because that
was very childish and you know,
you're supposed to work together
with other agencies you're not
supposed to act like that.
Former worker says the only solution they saw
was to quit. You would never go back
to work for the Sheriff's Office.
No, you couldn't pay me. No amount of money
to go back there work.
Kramer says his solution is to
take a different route to church
in hopes of avoiding the sheriff
and another confrontation.
This shouldn't be allowed and something
needs to happen before something
terrible happens in the future.
Don't talk to me like that.
I'm not your boys, we
showed Kramer's video to the County Attorney
who is speaking on behalf of the sheriff.
He said the sheriff did nothing illegal in
the video and he had no further comment.
The GBI and District Attorney were
notified about the first video we showed
you and that is under investigation.
