Sen. Emanuel Jones (D-Decatur), chairman of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus (GLBC), will hold a press conference to bring awareness and support for the officials in the “Quitman Ten”, which includes three school board members and nine Brooks County residents indicted on Nov. 22, 2011, on several counts of alleged unlawful possession of ballots that favored the board members in the 2010 Brooks County school board election. The case involved only 10 defendants until November 2011 when two more people were indicted in the case.

It has been said that all board members were outstanding teachers and highly regarded in their community and in their educational tenures. Before the election the school board makeup was majority Caucasian after the election the School Board make up was 4 African American and 3 Caucasian.

The three suspended Board members, who have not been convicted of anything, were removed from office on January 10, 2012 by way of any Executive Order from Governor Nathan Deal. The indictments are not related to or adversely affect the administration of the office of Brooks County School Board of Education.
The suspension returns the Brooks County school board to a white majority.
