FIRST, PROTECT DRUG COURT
Controversy Over Drug Patch Shouldn't Scuttle An Effective Program. Solicitor Should Find a Compromise, If Needed
Thirteenth Circuit Solicitor Bob Ariail should not let the challenges
lodged against the reliability of the drug patch destroy an innovative
brand of restorative justice he, ironically, built.
A judge will soon decide if the drug patch is too unreliable and unfairly
subjects Drug Court participants to jail. Ariail says if Circuit Judge
Charles Simmons sides with three defendants challenging the patch, the
future of Drug Court is jeopardy.
