BARROW COUNTY, Ga. - Deputies in Barrow County arrested a newly-elected Georgia House of Representatives member accused of stealing medications from an assisted living home he manages in Winder.

The Barrow County Sheriff's Office said Danny Rampey, recently elected to represent District 119 in the state house, is charged with unauthorized distribution or possession of a controlled substance, burglary and exploitation and intimidation of disabled adults, elderly persons and residents.

Investigators received reports of Magnolia Estates of Winder residents missing medication. Investigators used "surveillance operations" to collect evidence. Deputies said they arrested Rampey, who they saw burglarizing a residence, as he was leaving an unoccupied unit on Dec. 15.

Investigators said they could file for more charges as the investigation continues.

Rampey is taking over the District 119 seat at the end of Marcus Wiedower's, R-Watkinsville, term. Rampey ran unopposed for the District 119 seat in the general election after winning the Republican primary.

Meet Danny Rampey

Danny is a conservative businessman running for State House District 119 to represent our community’s strong, America First conservative values.

Danny has dedicated his adult life to caring for the families of our region.

He saw the best of our community during COVID as each of us sacrificed and looked after our neighbors as our faith guides us to do. Now, power-hungry liberals in Washington are intent on using COVID as an excuse to force permanent restrictions on our lives. Danny knows the only way to stop them is by standing up to them. And that’s what he will do every day in the Georgia House of Representatives.

Hoe did he have access to these rooms? Does work at or possibly own this old folks home? Was he visiting a relative? Did he just walk on off the street and steal the drugs?

He's the manager, yet had no idea he was being surveilled on video? Wouldn't a manager EXPECT higher-end areas of these facilities (which this apparently was) to have electronic surveillance?

What a dumbass junkie.

It takes a special piece of shit to take advantage of the elderly. How long before he’s in rehab and asking his lord for forgiveness? After that, all is forgiven amongst the MAGATs in GA who he represents.

This really breaks my heart. Excluding murder, rape or child molestation, is there anything lower than stealing pain medication from the elderly? Especially when doctors are clamping down on prescriptions even in cases of broken bones (telling patients to take Tylenol instead). I hope those folks didn't suffer, even if they voted for him.

We had a MAGA nutjob run for school board, right before the election it came out she had been a hospice nurse convicted of stealing medication from cancer patients. Thankfully I live in a sane area and she lost.

I think a lot of the MAGA folks are mentally ill. Who would steal medication from someone dying from cancer?
