More complaints surface after FOX 5 I-Team investigates Otis Nixon

Posted: Updated:
ATLANTA -

Authorities in Walton County have opened a criminal probe following a FOX 5 I-Team investigation into former Atlanta Braves star Otis Nixon.  The hidden camera investigation caught Nixon taking cash with the false promise that his non-profit could get inmates paroled early.

More families have come forward since our investigation to tell authorities the Atlanta fan favorite ripped them off, too.  All of this is causing heartache in a place that once considered Otis Nixon their savior. Now, they're not sure what to think.

FOX 5 I-Team reporter Randy Travis has the latest developments.  Click on the video above to watch his story.
