NO OBJECTIONS TO SUCCESS OF GEORGIA'S DRUG COURTS
Drug courts sound like "no brainers" ("Positive verdict on drug
courts," Metro, Jan. 23). They help rehabilitate rather than
incarcerate. They may save people and families. They have saved the
state millions. Those sent to prison (rather than drug courts) were
more than four times as likely to commit future felonies.
Drug courts are saving both people and money. Who can argue against that??
