Appointed To Help Indigent
On July 1, 1976, Alex
Crumbley, Henry County
native, became Flint
Judicial Circuit’s first
public defender. His
office Is located on
Covington Street In
McDonough. He will be
defending cases where it

they were able to pay,”

appointment.

Criminal Justice Council
which was set up by
Executive Order of

(LEAA) monies. Henry
County is part of the
pilot program. Appoint

from Judge Hugh D.
Sosebee.

says, although there
have long been public
defenders in large urban
areas. Henry County is
part of the Flint Judicial
Circuit which also
includes Butts, Monroe,
and Lamar Counties.
The public defender’s
duties will take a burden
from the court since
counsel for indigents has
previously come from
the private bar upon
appointment by the
Court.
Mr. Crumbley will be
defending only those in
the Flint River Judicial
area that are determined
by the court or other
officials to be indigent.
“I will be calling on
members of the private
bar for assistance from
time to time,” Mr.
Crumbley told the
Weekly-Advertiser.
Mr. Crumbley is a
native of Kelleytown. He
has been associated for
the last few years with
Weltner, Kidd
Crumbley, and Tate, an
Atlanta law firm. He

in McDonough with
attorney Ernest M.
Smith.

fare. Be on the lookout for new
ideas and recipes you may see in

Buy edibles that can go well
