Cobb County Sheriff Craig Owens called his deputies to the Burger King on Veterans Memorial Highway in Mableton on March 4, 2023
A Georgia sheriff grew so angry when Burger King messed up his order that he called deputies to the store.
Cobb County Sheriff Craig Owens, who is up for re-election this year, called his deputies to the Burger King on Veterans Memorial Highway in Mableton on March 4, 2023, to help address his botched order, according to body camera footage obtained by WSB-TV. Owens' opponent in the upcoming election is slamming the sheriff's actions as an abuse of his position.
Three deputies were dispatched to the fast food restaurant with sirens blaring.
The deputies approached Owens in his truck, who was parked in the restaurant's parking lot. Owens was not in his uniform or in his sheriff's office vehicle.
"Hey, do me a favor. I need to get, all I need is the owner name of whoever owns this damn facility or the manager," Owens tells one deputy.
"I wanted her [to get his female passenger] a Whopper, no mayo, cut in half, right?" he continued.
The sheriff added: "I don’t need no damn money back no more. I just need to find out who owns this place so I can do an official complaint."
The deputies, without questioning why the sheriff could not ask for the information himself, then approached the restaurant's doors, but the employees had locked themselves inside.
The employees were eventually convinced to open the doors to let the deputies inside.
"Nobody is in trouble, we just want to get some names," one deputy told the assistant manager.
"There isn't even going to be a report written," the deputy said. "That guy out there, he's just going to file a complaint for his food."

Don’t bother people.....It is who you think it is
Illegal, criminal immigrants running amok in the county and the Sheriff needs his deputies to hold his hand on a burger order???
Time for a new sheriff and fortunately an election is just around the corner. Maybe some new blood will have a better plan for spending the citizens’ resources.
“the employees had locked themselves inside”
A little off topic but that is a fairly common practice over here just for a different reason....they make customers use the drive thru window......one guess of the employees ethnicity.
Officer Karen
One guess of this Sheriff’s ethnicity................
Posted this before in the previous article on this—the Sheriff was 100% justified to
call in Back Up Officers to Settle His Order Being Incorrectly Served-—IF it was Really Messed up—the SWAT team should have been called in-—I get it and am with him-—— 😋😮🙃😜
New blood helps.
Our county had the same sheriff for decades. And he became a regular Boss Hogg. Showed favorites, laughed at some serious incidents he thought was not real and had a real bunch of losers for deputies. This jackass retired and the new one got rid of all the deputies except two and this guy seems to be better.
As a kid I recall long term sheriffs and my dad disliked how they ran things..

Oh well then, by all means, reelect the man! He is a man who knows what he likes, and isn’t afraid to abuse anyone that doesn’t get his order right/ s
Yes boo-boo it’s them, and they are no longer happy with a free pic-a-nic basket. They are mad about what’s in it!!!
Yes, YATAH sheriff. - reddit term -You Are The A-Hole
Because my first thought was, "Probably a black guy."
(For the record, I was right)
Thanks, I was about to go look. How did I know this would be the case. Too bad there is no prize for guessing right.
I wonder how his female passenger felt about this incident.
Was she embarrassed or turned on by his ridiculous behavior.
“How did I know this would be the case”
Because a white sheriff would have had more common DAMN sense than doing something that absolutely stupid.
Dipshit failed to understand the level of intellect of fast food workers.......its been my studied opinion that they’re generally not bright enough to think outside the box.....even to just cut a burger in half......usually your lucky to just get everything you ordered.....that’s why the drive thru is a crap shoot suckers bet.
Good chance that no one spoke English there, could be part of the dems’ illegal alien workforce.
I will suggest that the Burger King peons knew he was up for election and created the rukus out of political spite. The sheriff jailed a cousin and was getting payback
Then the left wing democrats took over. Not sure if it’s people moving in from Atlanta or ballot fraud (my ballot was stolen in 2020 for the first time ever, and I’ve been voting since 1974).
The sheriff’s challenger seems like a decent fellow with LE experience.
Parodies are more believable that this...yet this is real life.
