St. Louis, MO, October 5, 2026 — A former court bailiff in Thomson, Georgia, faces charges related to the alleged sale of invalid CPR certifications to employees of local daycare and adult care facilities. The individual has been arrested and charged in connection with the scheme.

The allegations center on the sale of certifications that do not meet state requirements for businesses operating as daycares and adult care centers. State regulations mandate that employees in such facilities hold valid CPR certification. The former bailiff is accused of providing certifications that were not legitimate to staff members at these establishments.

Details regarding the specific name of the former court bailiff, the names of the daycare and adult care facilities involved, or the exact timeline of the alleged offenses were not immediately available. Information on the number of individuals or facilities that received these invalid certifications also remains unspecified.

Similarly, the amount of any fines or penalties associated with these charges, as well as any specific enforcement actions taken by state or local authorities beyond the arrest, have not been disclosed. The outcome of the legal proceedings against the former bailiff is pending.

The investigation into this matter is ongoing. Authorities have not released further information regarding the cause or extent of the alleged falsification of certifications or the potential implications for the care facilities and the individuals they serve. The requirement for valid CPR certification underscores the importance of safety protocols in facilities caring for vulnerable populations.
