We have been in front of her many times for the same bogus citations (the officer said he had never ever written citations for these charges in his 18 yrs working for Chamblee!) She intentionally makes us wait to be the last case even after my friend explained that is mother was taken to the hospital by ambulance the morning of his trial. I witnessed her treat people so different the law in Chamblee is if you're a Corporation you must have an attorney present yet she was basically having full trials without an attorney then she would tell other defendants that they had to get an attorney & the court could not be appoint one. Then she'd tell the next person the court would appoint an attorney if they couldn't afford one I've been sitting in her court room for 3.5 hours and my head is spinning due to her inconsistencies! On a more immediate note, Judge Laurel Henderson CAN NOT HEAR! Even with the microphone turned all the way up. Everyone else in court ears are ringing from the volume and yet she keeps saying speak up! I compassionately recommend that she get a hearing aid to assist her on the job to make it easier & more accurate

If you're going to traffic court, GET THERE EARLY. I got a lovely $150 ticket (3 points) for…read moremaking an "Improper U-Turn" out of the Chamblee Walmart. Instead of just paying the fine, I showed up for my court date (Monday at 6pm) in order to plead nolo and hopefully avoid the points. Court sessions are held in the Chamblee Civic Center (next to the Chamblee Police Department), and I think it's safe to say that every officer in the city shows up for the event. Yeah, I don't think you're going to get anywhere by pleading "not guilty," but that's just my guess. There's one line to get into court, one line to see the judge, and one line to pay. If you don't arrive early, then plan on spending a couple of hours there. I arrived 30 minutes ahead of time, and it took me 50 minutes from start to finish. When I was waiting in line to pay my fine, I counted 38 people waiting in the line to get into court. Turn off your phone, take off your hat, and only speak when you're spoken to... good luck!

I went to the Chamblee Police Station for a police ride-along. The process began with an email. I…read moreemailed the Police Department and my inquiry about ride-alongs was forwarded to the Assistant. Chief. He responded back to me via email pretty promptly and provided me with the forms that I needed to get the ball rolling. The first set of forms is to authorize a background check. The next set consists of release and permission waivers. Once the paperwork clears, the department then contacts you via email to schedule your ride time. Once your requested time is approved you report to the police department at the approved time. The typical ride-along lasts for 4 hours. When I reported to the designated check-in area on my scheduled date and time, I was asked to be seated until the Supervisor on duty came out with my assigned ride-along officer and further instruction. In about 2 minutes (or less) I was greeted by 3 officers; one of which was the officer that I was assigned to ride with, Officer Hidalgo. Before leaving the station, one of the three officers, Lieutenant Waasdorp, briefly went over some basic safety rules and instructions and then Officer Hidalgo and I were off. I rode with Officer Hidalgo as he responded to a couple of calls until he was called back to the station to be reassigned to another incident that required his assistance. I was then assigned to Officer Quarless. Both Officers Hidalgo & Quarless were GREAT! They did an excellent job explaining the process to me (what the radio call codes mean, what the incident reports entail, some of the procedures followed for specific types of calls) as I observed the way that they responded to the various situations that came up. They also were very thorough in answering questions that I had as I observed, and about things in general as a community resident. I really enjoyed this experience. I've always had a great appreciation for what the police do day-to-day to keep our communities safe that we as citizens sometimes take for granted. After this experience, I have an even greater understanding and appreciation of what a 'day in the life' of a cop in the field actually looks like. In today's climate of strained police and community relations due to a seemingly overwhelming amount of reports of police brutality, unjustified shootings, etc., it was refreshing to see firsthand that there are still good cops out there who truly just want to protect and serve in hopes that their efforts make a difference in the community. More importantly, (at least based on my interactions with the police in general and with MY local police department) I feel confident that these 'good' cops out-number the 'bad' ones. All in all, I appreciate that the department made my ride-along request a relatively simple and swift process to complete, and my experience an overall enjoyable and informative one. Thank you Assistant Chief Beller, Lieutenant Waasdorp, Officer Hidalgo, and Officer Quarless for taking the time out to educate and for getting me out and back safely!

I am writing this review after an extremely frustrating experience attempting to report what I…read morebelieve was a legitimate criminal matter involving my dogs, O.C.G.A. §16-10-20. In May 2025, my ex-wife refused to return my dogs to me and later falsely informed the DeKalb County Animal Shelter that I had died while deployed. I did not discover this until October 2025, when I received the official paperwork from the shelter. Upon learning this information, I immediately contacted the non-emergency line to file a police report. Unfortunately, the dispatcher I spoke with was dismissive, rude, and openly attempted to determine on her own what constituted a criminal matter versus a civil issue before a report was even taken. She also never identified herself during the call. After several months of repeated attempts to obtain assistance, I finally received a callback from Officer Brandon White. He reluctantly took my report and contacted me one time afterward, stating he had contacted dispatch and was heading to the shelter. After that, I never heard from him again despite multiple follow-up emails over the course of several months. Due to the lack of response, I escalated the matter through the chain of command and contacted Deputy Andrianne Byrd, providing documentation regarding the incident and the absence of investigative follow-up. I did not receive a response from Deputy Byrd. Lieutenant Guy Antinozzi later left me a voicemail, but despite returning his call three times and leaving two voicemail messages, I never received a callback. As of today, I still have not received meaningful communication or resolution from this department. My concern is not simply the outcome of the case, but the complete lack of professionalism, communication, and accountability throughout the process. Based on my experience, the level of responsiveness and follow-through from this agency has been deeply disappointing.

The past three City Managers, do not followup when the promise to do so. After multiple visits to a grand City Hall where there are few workers, it is clear the staff is completely incompetent.

Especially the Chinatown Food Court which is full of gems like a Chongqing and Tsingtao.

Where we're from all of the local libraries, even the tiniest ones are community hubs- very welcoming, inviting with nice whimsical touches that draw you in, & lots of different community events for all ages going on.
