Judge Gunn was unfortunately too ill to attend the Whodunits meeting on May 1, but she sent a worthy subsitute in her law clerk, attorney Kathryn Hake.

Hake’s description of the drug court program not only gave members a clear picture of how the court functions, but conveyed its importance in the lives of the 186 clients who are currently enrolled in it.

The court meets every Monday, alternating its locale between the Washington County Court House annex and various school locations.  The purpose of drug court is not only to help in the rehabilitation of its clients, but to prevent young people from making the self-destructive choices that lead to drug abuse.
