I want to make the public aware there is a scam going on in which a person calls stating you have missed a federal jury selection in Savannah. Do not fall for it. He used the name of a judge Tommie Smith, there is no judge by that name in the federal circuit in Savannah. He threatened to have deputies arrest me and I requested for federal marshals to do so since local deputies will not arrest based on a federal warrant. So please beware if you get this type of call.
