EAST POINT, Ga. -- An East Point police officer has been arrested for allegedly helping a serial bank robber, East Point police said.

East Point police said they arrested one of their own officers, Nicole Drane, on 15 different counts.

Drane is accused of misusing the police department’s computer to let a suspect in 12 bank robberies know if he was wanted.

Authorities said they took Drane into custody Thursday for violating her oath of office, hindering the apprehension of a suspected criminal and bribery.

The charges are related to Drane’s connection to Malik Dillard, a suspect involved in a string of bank robberies along the East Coast, including some in Georgia. Dillard told the FBI he had help from someone on the inside, according to East Point officials.

Dillard told investigators that he would call Drane after some of the robberies to see if authorities were looking for him.

"Well, it doesn't sit very well but I have to look again, maybe they're not paying them enough at East Point so they have to have some extracurricular activity. But no, it doesn't sit well," said East Point resident Michael Freeman.

Authorities said Drane is currently in custody at the Fulton County Jail.

Drane's first court appearance is Friday at 11 a.m.

A big slap in the face to the public and her agency. Bad apples like N. Drane tarnish the profession.

Instead of looking at how much they pay they should look at their hiring standards. :rolleyes:
