- ➤ The fentanyl eradication act passed the General Assembly on March 28 and went to Governor Kemp on April 7; the law lowers trafficking thresholds so that anyone caught with more than four grams of fentanyl faces a ten-year prison term and a $75,000 fine. Houston County Sheriff Matt Moulton said the law will help stop dangerous drug trafficking and noted his office will host an opioid awareness assembly on May 14 at Southside Baptist Church—his team works with local schools and police to teach the public about fentanyl risks.

- ➤ Houston County Sheriff Matt Moulton donated a 2020 Ford Explorer patrol vehicle with 97,000 miles to the Pulaski County sheriff's office after the Houston County Commission approved the transfer due to a need for newer vehicles.
