11Alive obtains video that led to Greene County deputy's arrest after handcuffed suspect was tased in hospital 06/20/2026

BWC VIDEO SHOWS GREENE COUNTY DEPUTY TASE A HANDCUFFED SUSPECT INSIDE HOSPITAL

📍Greene County Georgia

Body-worn camera (BWC) footage is providing a firsthand look at the incident that led to the arrest and termination of a Greene County Sheriff's Deputy, whose case was recently presented to a grand jury that declined to indict him.

The video, obtained through Georgia's Open Records Act, captures the July 2025 encounter between former Greene County Deputy Robert Kline and Cornelius Allen, a man arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence following a crash on Interstate 20.

Allen was handcuffed behind his back, sitting in a wheelchair when he was tased inside St. Mary's Good Samaritan Hospital.

I requested the video after Kline contacted our newsroom earlier this month seeking an interview about the case.

In an email, Kline stated he had been "found not guilty" and wanted to discuss what he described as inadequate training within the Greene County Sheriff's Office.

However, Kline was never tried in the case. Instead, the Ocmulgee Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office presented evidence to a Greene County grand jury on March 25, 2026.

I set up an interview with Kline that was scheduled to happen on Wednesday, June 17. However, the day before the scheduled interview, Kline sent me an email stating "I spoke with my attorney yesterday, June 15, regarding your request to interview me about the BWC video. He has advised me not to speak to the media at this time."

It is unclear whether prosecutors intend to present the case to another grand jury.

**We're going on tonight at 11:45 p.m. I'll have more of the BWC on air. I'll also be posting a link to my report after it airs tonight**
