Instead of being the lost soul of a loner drifting aimlessly having a peripatetic wind, I'm now preferring something with more bite to it. As experience is just nature cruel way of giving the exams first followed by their lessons; you eventually reach a point where silence can no longer be contained no matter the cost.

Winn Way Mental Health Services and State of Georgia DBHDD Competency Evaluation

Hello Donna,
Well the appointment with Winn Way's Drug Addiction Clinic was a disappointment. Heard nothing there sounding encouraging enough to even bother.
As far as the competency evaluation this morning with a Dr. Peggy Flanagan at our Law Office of Public Defenders Dekalb County, actually enjoyed the evaluation. Found it quite pleasant chatting with her. But this is not the same as saying Dr. Flanagan will find me competent; focused enough with my answers to her questions.
Anyway, not sure how long it will take getting the results/write up of this evaluation from Dr. Flanagan, however, Public Defender Ingrid said trial date would probably be more like a month from now..?
Thank you for letting me know what you could about your hearings! I saw some Christmas decorations up in your pics! The nutcrackers! Have you talked to the lawyer Mr. Bips?

A Message from
Solicitor-General Donna Coleman-Stribling
Thank you for visiting the website of the DeKalb County Solicitor-General’s Office. This office is responsible for the prosecution of misdemeanor crimes and county ordinance violations which occur in DeKalb County. These misdemeanor crimes carry a maximum penalty of 12 months in jail. Examples of these misdemeanor crimes include DUIs, Domestic Violence, Battery, Stalking and Shoplifting.
As your Solicitor-General, I understand that these misdemeanor crimes affect our quality of life in DeKalb. It’s the side of the criminal justice system we are most likely to encounter and most likely to rely upon. It is the duty of this office to seek justice, protect victims’ rights, ensure fairness and promote public safety. I look forward to serving the citizens of DeKalb and I will make it my job to build a better, safer DeKalb.

Nuisance Abatement
An important part of our Community Prosecution Program involves the filing of nuisance abatement actions to address nuisance properties – those properties known within the community to sustain criminal activities. While the criminal justice system addresses individual offenders who have committed crimes, nuisance abatement actions enable prosecutors to go after nuisance properties and their owners for allowing criminal activity to flourish. The Solicitor-General’s Office works with law enforcement and the community to identify problem areas through which we can utilize civil remedies against the property, its owners/occupants and other relevant parties.
While these cases can be time-consuming to investigate and litigate, they yield results.
These cases go a long way to making DeKalb safer because they disrupt criminal activity and force criminals to find a new place to do “business.” Law-abiding citizens enjoy a better quality-of-life and, eventually, improved property values. It is a multi-pronged effort involving police, prosecutors and the community working together so that the 700,000 citizens living in DeKalb can enjoy the quality-of-life they deserve and want despite these trying economic times.
In some cases, these nuisance properties violate County property codes, as either unsafe or unsightly locations. Often times, such properties that violate code have been reported to the DeKalb County Code Enforcement. The Office of the Office of the DeKalb Solicitor-General prosecutes code enforcement cases.
If you have a nuisance problem in your community and need to report an issue, please contact DeKalb County Code Enforcement at 404-687-3700 or log on to the Code Enforcement website.
If a code enforcement case is already filed in court and you have questions about it, contact Tom Kemp at wtkemp@dekalbcountyga.gov.
If you need assistance with a nuisance issue in your community, contact Community Prosecutor Claire Farley at acfarley@dekalbcountyga.gov. Also, you can reach the community prosecutors at (404) 371-2201 or emailsolicitorinfo@dekalbcountyga.gov.

Laws favor the cautious.
Who is it writing our laws?
Those having a surplus.
Those having a surplus are better able controlling their circumstances. Those without a surplus are controlled by those with that surplus. One is not always able exercising good judgement.
Which bring us to the question as to what do all our representatives both elected and non-elected have in common?
They
triangulate their good (gold) fortune
off
the congeniality bias (misfortunes) of their constituents.
Certainly not about to give that up!
"This thing you are wanting, a non-criminal facts finding hearing justice..? There's no mechanism for this!"
~(Public Defender Ingrid McGaughey)~ "Well then! That is our problem... isn't it."
