On Thursday February 27, 2025 I, Deputy Napier, Sgt Leggett, and Deputy Brooks responded to [3300 BLOCK] Brownlee Rd Forsyth, GA in reference to a domestic dispute. Upon arrival at the residence I made contact with [VICTIM #1] who informed me that his grandson, Jesse Ray Dobbs, had punched multiple holes in the walls of his room and broken the window of his room. [VICTIM #1] also stated that Jesse was verbally threatening and demeaning him and his wife, [VICTIM #2]. He stated that Jesse left the residence before we arrived.

[VICTIM #1] then took Sgt Leggett, Deputy Brooks and I into the home to view the damage to Jesse’s room. Upon entering the room, multiple holes of various sizes could be seen in every wall of the room along with the only window in the room being shattered. [VICTIM #1] informed me that Jesse has mental health issues and is prone to acting erratically when he is not properly medicated. He stated that the damage to the room has been ongoing for the past few months but they have not reported it to the Sheriff’s Office. [VICTIM #2] stated that the window being broken happened on this date.

After viewing the damage to the room I took photographs of the holes in the walls and the broken window. I then went into the living room of the home to speak with [VICTIM #1] and [VICTIM #2]. They both informed me that Jesse’s behavior was scaring them and very unpredictable and that it was to the point that they were afraid to live with him. [VICTIM #2] told me that she gives him his medicine everyday but she does not check to see if he actually takes it or not. She felt as though asking him if he actually takes the medicine would cause him to act out.

[VICTIM #2] said that Jesse’s mother was at the residence earlier that evening and that Jesse was threatening her with a sharp stick. The mother ran out of the home and back to her house because of Jesse threatening her. No contact with the mother was made. [VICTIM #1] also informed us that he believed Jesse was drinking alcohol that night which could have brought on his violent behavior.

We informed both [VICTIM #2] and [VICTIM #1] that if Jesse shows back up at the residence that they should contact the Sheriff’s Office so that we could come back out to the home. On our way out of the home, standing in the yard, we heard someone walking up to the front of the home from behind it. We then made contact with Jesse and informed him that he was under arrest. Deputy Brooks and I then placed him in handcuffs. Jesse asked what he was under arrest for and I informed him it was for criminal trespass and disorderly conduct. Jesse asked why we were charging him with that and we informed him it was for the verbal threats to his grandparents and the damage to his room. Jesse admitted to breaking the window but that we could not charge him because he pays rent to live at the home.

Deputy Brooks then placed Jesse in the back of his patrol car and transported him to the Monroe County Jail. He was then turned over to jail custody and booked in. Jesse is being charged with one count of criminal trespass and one count of disorderly conduct.
