MACON, Ga. — Deputy Christopher Knight worked the overnight shift at the Bibb County jail.
His mother, Cheryl Knight, says despite the hours, he loved his job.
Knight says as a kid, her son was respectful and always had a smile.
"If you got to meet him, you would instantly like him, he's just the kind of person, he just had that infectious personality that you just like him immediately once you meet him," she says.
