Tenure Summary

Jimmy Lee Miles has been employed by the Georgia Department of Corrections since at least 2015, progressing from a corrections officer to a deputy warden by 2022—a facility-leader role he held through early 2025. According to GPS accountability records, no deaths are attributed to any facility during his leadership tenures as a deputy warden (total deaths attributed: 0). Miles has been named as a defendant in two federal lawsuits brought by Waseem Daker, a state prisoner; both suits concluded without any recorded monetary judgment.

What happened on his watch

From 2015 through 2021, Miles held progressively responsible uniformed and supervisory positions—corrections officer, sergeant, lieutenant, captain, and unit manager. GPS data do not link these postings to any specific facility, and no deaths are attributed to them.

Beginning in 2022, Miles served as deputy warden, again without a facility assignment appearing in the available records. No deaths are attributed to his deputy warden years. The second lawsuit naming him, Daker v. Oliver, was filed in 2025 while he remained in the deputy warden role; it was terminated in March 2026. The earlier suit, Daker v. Ward, was filed during his time as a captain in 2020 and closed without a damages award in 2021.
