Woman claims affair with Dorsey

ALBANY - A woman testified Monday that she had an affair with former DeKalb County Sheriff Sidney Dorsey, who she says told her their relationship ``wasn&#39;t over until he said it was over.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Saresa Beasley-Simmons was on the stand as testimony resumed in the murder and racketeering trial of Dorsey, who is accused of ordering the December 2000 slaying of his successor, Sheriff-elect Derwin Brown. <br> <br> Beasley-Simmons told jurors she first slept with Dorsey in 1997 on a business trip. She said she wanted to break off the affair in early 1998, when she said Dorsey made the remark. <br> <br> Later Monday, prosecutors were expected to call DeKalb sheriff&#39;s Lt. Roy Baker, who was a top aide to Dorsey. Other witnesses have said Dorsey used Baker to relay orders to provide special treatment for his family. <br> <br> Prosecutors are focusing on what they call a pattern of corruption during Dorsey&#39;s tenure as sheriff, which ended when Brown beat him in a bitter runoff election earlier in 2000. They are expected to begin the murder phase of the trial later this week. <br> <br> A separate jury has acquitted two other men, David Ramsey and Melvin Walker, who were accused of carrying out the slaying. <br> <br> The Dorsey trial was moved to this south Georgia city because of heavy publicity in metro Atlanta. <br>
