HABERSHAM COUNTY, Ga. — Channel 2 Action News has confirmed a deputy involved with the raid that critically injured a toddler has resigned.
The Georgia Peace Officer Stantards and Training Council, POST, confirmed that a special agent voluntarily resigned in June.
In late May, 19-month-old Bounkham Phonesavanh was sleeping when a flash bang device exploded in his crib. The device was thrown by a SWAT team that was raiding a Habersham County home with a no-knock warrant looking for a drug dealer.
Earlier this week, Channel 2 Action News broke the news that a grand jury declined to pursue criminal charges against the deputies involved.
The Habersham County Sheriff has not returned requests for comment.
