SANDERSVILLE, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) - A district attorney from Houston County is overseeing the investigation of Washington County Solicitor Michael Howard.

Howard resigned after our 12 On Your Side investigation raised questions about why some DUI cases were not being prosecuted .

Our investigation showed video of drivers who tested over twice the legal limit appearing to walk free after their cases were dismissed.

We also found at least 95 of these DUI cases in Washington County.

Less than a week since we brought you our investigation, Howard stepped down .
