The Georgia Bureau of Investigation says a Department of Community Supervision Officer was arrested Friday for allegedly having sexual relations with a probationer on at least two different occasions in McDuffie County.

Fifty-seven-year-old Bobby Evans of Thomson surrendered to GBI agents at the McDuffie County Jail.  He was charged with two counts of Sexual Assault of a Probationer or Parolee and one count of Violation of Oath of Office by a Public Officer.

The GBI says an investigation began in July, 2022 following allegations made by one of Evans' probationers.  In a news release the GBI said, "the investigation is active and ongoing.  Once it's completed, it will be given to the Toombs Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office for prosecution."

Anyone with information is asked to call the GBI at 706-595-2575.  Anonymous tips can also be submitted by calling 1-800-597-TIPS, online at https://gbi.georgia.gov/submit-tips-online, or by downloading the See Something, Send Something mobile app.
