Our host Cameron Jay recently sat down with Sheriff John Q. Williams of the Clarke County Sheriff's Office for a powerful and honest conversation about the challenges facing Athens, Georgia's jail, public safety, and what it takes to build- and rebuild- trust in our community.

Our Story.

Hi, Iโ€™m Cameron Jay, host of Classic City Crime, a new true crime podcast coming to Athens, Georgia.

Hereโ€™s what I donโ€™t want this to be: another podcast you binge and leave behind pile of podcasts past. I want to continually tell stories, continually seek answers, always fight for justice, and with your help. Why?

My momโ€™s best friend and my second cousin (if I did the math right...it was never my strong suit) was gunned down as she worked from a movie store in 1996. Though only a child at the time with no memory of her, Iโ€™ll never forget those times when her name would come up and the sadness would set in on my mom and familyโ€™s faces. For my cousin and my family, Justice was eventually served. But, this did little to prepare me for a more personal loss I would experience at age 13.

Jacob was my best friend, meeting in the first grade probably arguing on the playground about something most first-graders probably donโ€™t have on their mind: our weather predictions, our thought on the political climate (like we knew anything about that), and more. Thatโ€™s how our friendship was: challenge one another but always, always be friends. We were, until his life ended at the hands of at distracted driver in 2008, just one semester away from finishing our junior high career. Iโ€™ll never forget Jacob, the lasting effect his death had on me, and Iโ€™m grateful that his family, too, was able to eventually see Justice served. Still reading? Good. The next partโ€™s interesting.
