On the date of 05/19/2025, Reporting Lieutenant (R/L) Rodney Mitchell, badge #513 with the Paulding County Sheriff’s Office Juvenile Division, while working my assigned duties, was conducting an underage buy operation at Vape Escape located at 403 W. Memorial Dr, Dallas, GA 30132

On arrival, Juvenile [REDACTED BY AGENCY], who is under the age of 21, went into the store with a recording device functioning correctly. He made contact with the store clerk, [REDACTED], and requested to buy a vape. At no point did she ask for identification, and she sold him a vape device in violation of OCGA 16-12-171(a)(1)(A). He exited the store, returned to the vehicle, and notified us that she had sold a vape to him. Corporal Cross and Detective Sicienski went into the store, making contact with the suspect and informing her that a warrant would be issued for her arrest and that she could turn herself in to the Sheriff’s Office the following day. Detective Sicienski took down her information and answered any questions she had. We then left the scene.
