The Gadsden Times, 11 Jul 2015 - Many pieces of legislation may be touted as life-saving, but probably few have greater direct life-saving potential than a law passed in the last session that increases access to a medication that can reverse the deadly effects of a drug overdose. Drug overdoses have increased dramatically in Etowah County in recent years. A great many of the overdose deaths recorded come from the use of heroin or opiate-related drugs such as pain medications.

The Over the Mountain Journal, 05 Aug 2014 - When friends from her Sunday School class knocked on the door of her Vestavia Hills home in the middle of the day last spring, Beverly Mims said she knew something was wrong. "I had felt uneasy that morning, like something was off. My heart skipped a beat when I heard them at the door," Mims said. "They had my husband, Ronnie on the phone and told me he needed to talk to me. But I never dreamed that what he would say was that our son was dead."

Montgomery Advertiser, 18 Jul 2014 - I think I have figured out something. Let's combine Josh Moon et al., including Big Brother, and we have a solution for Alabama and America. Legalize pot in America, and Congress will make some important decisions about immigration, the IRS and phony scandals, and even future phony scandals. It might require food because pot makes you hungry, I hear, so the cost of groceries might go up exponentially.

Opelika-Auburn News, 17 May 2014 - Micheal Hudson, a multi-media specialist for the city of Riviera Beach, Fla., was ordered by Human Resources Director Doretha Perry to take a reasonable suspicion drug test. When Hudson later revoked the city's access to the results of his hair sample drug test, he was fired for refusal to take the test. Hudson then filed a lawsuit in Federal Court alleging that Perry violated his rights under the 4th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution by ordering him to submit to the drug tests or risk termination because of alleged bad blood between Hudson and Perry's son, Troy, who also worked for the city. Hudson's direct supervisor and his supervisor did not request that Hudson be tested or suspect Hudson of drug use.
