FOCUS: DUI convictions are not only expensive, but last forever

By Pamela South, judge, State Court of Gwinnett | For over 15 years, I have been a judge and now have heard thousands of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) cases. I am happy to report that the number of DUI cases has recently fallen slightly in Gwinnett County. And as for multi-DUI offenders, our Gwinnett Accountability Courts have been effective in treating alcoholism and addictions and reducing recidivism. But DUI remains a continuing problem in our county.
