Some GBI Criminal Cases In Jeopardy

Dozens of criminal cases in the state could be in jeopardy following the resignation of a state firearms examiner for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. The GBI says Bernadette Davy admitted to not fully testing guns. Firearms examiners are supposed to pull the trigger 12 times before testifying about a piece of evidence. Officials say Davy admitted she had pulled the trigger only 10 times. The GBI has contacted local prosecutors and offered to retest firearms handled by Davy. Some 20 requests for retesting have been received. Davy was an examiner with the GBI since 1991.
