Costing Every Man, Woman and Child Estimated $1,300 per year
Greenville County Sheriff Steve Loftis and other law enforcement officials have confirmed that a majority of all crimes are committed by individuals involving or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. The fallout from addiction and drug abuse makes up a large portion of the workload of law enforcement, emergency medical personnel and facilities and is a burden on families and county taxpayers.
A study conducted by Tripp Umbach Healthcare Consulting, Inc. estimates that South Carolina spends more than $5 billion annually on substance abuse including criminal justice costs, social services, healthcare, loss of productivity and treatment.

I am not the only person who will remember Saturday, October 29, 2011, forever. My wife, Margie, our friends Janice and Dennis Kinard, and one special officer of the North Carolina Highway Patrol are the ones that come immediately to mind.
That day started out quite harmlessly. I rolled out of bed at 7:00, which is unusually early for a Saturday. I got our slow cooker out and loaded it with two pounds of red beef stew meat plus carrots, parsnips, onions, potatoes, broth, and spices. These would cook on low all day so that when four hungry travelers returned about 5:00 P.M. they could sit down immediately to a delicious, hearty plate of beef stew.
