ATLANTA – Andre Jackson, who at the time of the offense was employed by the Clayton County, Georgia Police Department, has been sentenced for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud.

“A law enforcement officer’s responsibility is to serve and protect, not to conspire and steal,” said U.S. Secret Service Special Agent in Charge Steven R. Baisel. “Unfortunately, sometimes even those in positions of trust can be drawn to their baser instincts of greed.”
