www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com The Gwinnett County district attorney race took a new dramatic turn Monday when the Democratic candidate, Patsy Austin-Gatson, filed a libel and slander lawsuit against her opponent, incumbent DA Danny Porter.

The lawsuit is in response to interviews Porter did with two local television stations as well as a press release he issued last week after he filed a complaint with the State Ethics Commission against Austin-Gatson and former Sheriff's candidate Curtis Clemons. Austin-Gatson and Clemons have claimed the allegations Porter made against them are false.

"Through such conduct, Defendant has acted maliciously and with reckless disregard for the truth, as his statements are made without personal knowledge of any of the matters alleged and the allegations have yet to be addressed by the Commission, which would be the adjudicating body," Austin-Gatson's lawsuit states.
