Sheriff Takes Stand Against A&E; Announces Office Will No Longer Assist Network With Filming

The local sheriff in a Georgia county where A&E has filmed several of its programs has publicly announced the network will no longer receive the assistance of his Sheriff’s Department due to A&E’s “unreasonable” punishment of ”Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson.
