All too often we report on crimes involving drug addiction. Thursday night on the Eastern Shore Baldwin County Drug Court were celebrating people who have overcome it — and the ones who have helped them on their road to recovery.
“Someone who is an addict -- they will not be able to get clean and sober by themselves -- they are going to have to have help. And that’s who we are,” explained Baldwin County District Attorney Bob Wilters.
Thursday night’s featured speaker -- actor Danny Trejo -- sharing his battle with addiction and how’s he remained sober for 55 years. In the last 16 years they’ve managed to help more than 800 people successfully navigate their road to recovery.
