At one point two years ago, then-Hall County Fire Chief Jeff Hood believed his deputy chief was spying on him and that surveillance cameras and listening devices were being employed to do so, according to a Hall County Sheriff’s Office investigative report obtained by The Times. The day after Hood’s complaint to county officials in April 2016, former arson investigator Lt. Dax Lewis told investigators he had “fabricated the entire story, including the cameras,” according to the report.
