SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - It’s been about nine months since the last jury trial occurred in Chatham County.
And in just a few weeks, the county’s newly-elected District Attorney, Shalena Jones, will inherit thousands of cases that have been back-logged and are awaiting resolution.
The District Attorney-elect told WTOC on the felony side, it looks like there about 1,200 cases that are prepared and pending indictment once a grand jury is able to hear those cases.
