District Attorney's Office Deputy Chief Investigator Eric Yarbrough

The Georgia Gang Investigator’s Association trains, provides intelligence, and facilitates corroboration among law enforcement and prosecutor agencies throughout the state. This award acknowledges Investigator Yarbrough’s deep commitment and hard work in investigating gang crimes and illegal gang activity in not just Walton County, but in the surrounding areas.

The award was presented to Investigator Yarbrough by GBI Special Agent and Regional Gang Specialist Ashleigh Isaacson.

“Investigator Yarbrough has consistently been, not just one of the hardest working individuals in all of law enforcement in our Circuit, and the entire State of Georgia. He is committed to doing the right thing and will stop at nothing to achieve justice for victims and our communities.

Investigator Yarbrough has never believed that a case coming to the District Attorney’s Office is the complete story. He will always go above and beyond to continue digging to find more information. I cannot think of someone more deserving of being honored with this award.

Walton County is a safter place because of Investigator Yarbrough. The entire DA’s Office is proud and honored to be able to work alongside him.
