lived in two different counties during that time, and did not specify which residence was scene of particular act in question, although it showed that molestation occurred in both residences. Bravo v. State, 269 Ga.App. 242, 603 S.E.2d 669 (August 6, 2004). “Where the victim testifies where the crime took place, and an officer identifies that location as being within a certain county, the officer’s testimony is not hearsay. Branesky v. State , 262 Ga.App. 33, 35(2) (584 S.E.2d 669) (2003); Jones v. State, 246 Ga.App. 596, 597(2) (539 S.E.2d 602) (2000) . In addition to this direct testimony of venue ( Jones, above at 598(2)), the testimony that the officer investigating the crime was a Fulton County officer provided further evidence that the crime took place in Fulton County since ‘public officials are believed to have performed their duties properly and not to have exceeded their authority unless clearly proven otherwise.’ Chapman v. State, 275 Ga. 314, 317(4) (565 S.E.2d 442) (2002). See Branesky, supra at 35(2). Ample evidence proved venue here.” Ramsey v. State, 267 Ga.App. 452, 600 S.E.2d 399 (May 17, 2004). Trial court properly denied motion to withdraw guilty plea to theft by receiving; defendant showed no manifest injustice resulting from acceptance of plea. “‘A knowing and voluntary plea of guilty acts as a waiver of all defenses, known and unknown,’ Brown v. State , 261 Ga.App. 448, 449, 582 S.E.2d 588 (2003),” including, here, venue. “See also OCGA § 17-2-4 (defendant wishing to plead guilty may waive venue).” Accord, Coulter v. State , 295 Ga. 699, 763 S.E.2d 713 (September 22, 2014) (guilty plea to malice murder waived defense of failure to establish venue). Houston v. State, 267 Ga.App. 315, 599 S.E.2d 278 (May 7, 2004). Defendant’s demurrer to speeding citation should have been granted where charge brought in City Court of Atlanta, and only allegation of venue in citation was that offense occurred in Fulton County. In re: A.A., 265 Ga.App. 369, 593 S.E.2d 891 (January 30, 2004). “[Defendants] … claim that the State failed to prove venue for the offenses of minor in possession of alcohol. [Defendants] argue that no evidence was introduced as to where they actually possessed the alcohol. They claim that once the beer was in their stomachs, it ceased to be an alcoholic beverage…. [Defendants] provide no authority for this statement and indeed, well-settled case law is to the contrary. See, e.g., Krebsbach v. State, 209 Ga.App. 474, 433 S.E.2d 649 (1993); Lee v. State, 201 Ga.App. 827, 828, 412 S.E.2d 563 (1991); Hadaway v. State, 190 Ga.App. 5, 6, 378 S.E.2d 127 (1989). The officer testified that his encounter with [defendants] and their subsequent arrest occurred in Fayette County. This was sufficient to prove venue beyond a reasonable doubt.” Blake v. State, 264 Ga.App. 782, 592 S.E.2d 437 (December 16, 2003). “Where venue is improper, and has not been waived, there is no jurisdiction and the ensuing judgment is void.” Where defendant pled guilty to all eight counts of indictment, but venue was lacking as to one count and defendant did not knowingly waive venue, trial court should have granted defendant’s motion to withdraw his guilty plea as to the one count. Pruitt v. State, 264 Ga.App. 44, 589 S.E.2d 864 (November 10, 2003). Venue for charge of possession of marijuana by ingestion was sufficient in “county where the defendant was present immediately before being asked to provide the urine sample.” Lowther v. State, 263 Ga.App. 282, 587 S.E.2d 335 (September 18, 2003). Evidence was sufficient to prove venue where it showed that the offense took place at defendant’s home; that the victim lived next door; and that the victim’s residence was in the proper county. Compare to Jones (October 2, 2000), below. Thompson v. State, 277 Ga. 102, 586 S.E.2d 231 (September 15, 2003). Reverses 257 Ga.App. 426, 571 S.E.2d 158 (2002). While evidence showed that sexual battery occurred at defendant’s auto repair shop, no evidence before the jury showed what county the shop was in. Defendant’s pleading requesting the lowering of bond, however, stated that the shop was in the county. Held, facts not in evidence before the jury can’t be considered in deciding whether venue has been proven, even solemn admissions in judicio. Carley and Benham dissent, arguing that a fact admitted in judicio need not be proven. Followed, In re: B.R. (December 14, 2007), above. Morris v. State, 263 Ga.App. 115, 587 S.E.2d 272 (September 10, 2003). “A victim’s testimony that the events occurred in the county where tried is sufficient to prove venue.” Napier v. State, 276 Ga. 769, 583 S.E.2d 825 (June 2, 2003). Trial courts should refrain from charging verbatim the
