MARIETTA â Cobb Countyâs newest magistrate judges were sworn in Monday with the help of their families in attendance and watching remotely.
Children were an important part of the swearing-in ceremony for incoming full-time Cobb Magistrate Judges Sonja Brown and Michael McLaughlin. Brownâs nieces and nephews and one of McLaughlinâs grandchildren led the Pledge of Allegiance, and they also held the new judgesâ respective Bibles.
McLaughlin, who is the dean of the Cobb magistrate bench, has served there since 1985 while also running his own law firm. Serving full-time as a magistrate, he said, will allow him to devote himself completely to the bench.

he Delta Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® located in Petersburg, VA has become the first chapter in the Commonwealth of Virginia to have a historical marker recognizing the significance of the graduate chapter itself, not an individual person or member. The Board of Historical Resources met virtually on December 10, 2020, to vote to approve the historical veracity of several marker proposals. Delta Omega’s marker was included among six submissions in the Diversity Marker category. After a comprehensive process that began during the summer of 2020, the chapter realized a dream that had been a part of its almost 100-year history.
