A longtime victim/witness advocate for the Hall County Sheriff’s Office resigned after a Sept. 30 incident involving alcohol. Jim “Bimbo” Brewer, 69, was off duty Sept. 30 when dispatch called him concerning “several major incidents requiring advocacy,” spokesman Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks said. While at Northeast Georgia Medical Center assisting with a fatal car crash, a fellow officer noted the odor of alcohol on Brewer’s breath and notified his supervisor, who responded to the hospital to investigate, he said.
