A Chattooga County woman has been indicted by the Grand Jury in connection with an alleged family violence incident involving an elderly person.
Court records show that Tina Michelle Campbell has been charged with battery under the Family Violence Act and exploitation and intimidation of a disabled adult or elderly person. Campbell is accused of striking the elderly person in the face in February of this year.
The indictment is not Campbell’s first accusation involving family violence. In 2010, WZQZ News reported that Campbell and Luke Cody Campbell were arrested by the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office and charged with first-degree cruelty to children following an investigation involving injuries to their 3-month-old daughter.
At that time, authorities said emergency room personnel contacted law enforcement after the child was brought to Hutcheson Medical Center in Fort Oglethorpe with a head injury. Chattooga County investigators became involved after it was determined that the child lived in Trion and that the alleged injuries likely occurred in Chattooga County.
In the current case, Campbell faces felony charges related to the alleged abuse of an elderly or disabled adult. The case will proceed through Chattooga County Superior Court.
Campbell is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.
