THANK YOU MINDY Re: the Nov. 21 Mindy Jacobs column, "Courting cocaine." Thank you, Mindy, for writing about Edmonton's drug treatment court and the successes of Oliver and Tina. It was discouraging though, to read that, "of the 80-odd offenders who've entered the program over the past three years, only 16 have graduated - a 20% success rate." My loved one is one of the graduates. Every day he and others choose not to steal or to use drugs is a success for them and the program staff.
