Thank you to John Heneghan for bringing this 11Alive Series to my attention. This topic was the buzz this weekend at every event I attended.
Dunwoody Parental Alert – Heroin is a growing problem in the Northern Suburbs!
In Atlanta’s affluent suburbs, there’s a deadly secret. Heroin-related deaths have gone up by 3844%. The GBI confirms the fastest growing rate of heroin-related deaths is in a cluster of Atlanta’s northern wealthy suburbs. That fact is hiding in state and county records. Inside the Triangle is the story of how 11Alive found the truth. From John Heneghan: “Parents of Dunwoody, please take a look at this story as your children are not immune – trust me, I know first hand that is a problem that we are as a community are dealing with and it is something that the City of Dunwoody takes very seriously.” |
Glad to see some press on this. Fulton county needs some resources for addicted individuals who cannot live at home any longer, that are not exorbitant in price!!!
Audra, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It is a really dangerous addiction. Every parent should watch those 11alive videos.
