Inmates say don't follow our paths, we paid the price for our wrongs
The culmination of Red Ribbon Week for Dougherty County schools concluded today with a powerful presentation at Magnolia Elementary.
The Dougherty County Sheriff’s Department had three current and/or former inmates come out to speak to the 400 students about staying away from drugs and alcohol. One inmate was sentenced to prison for killing a person while he was driving drunk, another was sentenced to five years on drug convictions, and the third is a former inmate who was also involved with drugs.
