ATLANTA — An airport contractor was arrested at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport Tuesday after another contract employee accused him of sexually assaulting her during her shift.
Eddie Sanders, 47, of Stone Mountain, was arrested on a charge of rape.
Channel 2 investigative reporter Nicole Carr went to the magistrate clerk's office Wednesday to look for more details in the warrants. But the records won't be filed until Thursday.
Channel 2 Action News attended the bond hearing for Sanders in Clayton County Wednesday. The few details that were read in the courtroom are too graphic to report, but they were behind judge denying bond for Sanders.
