Updates include improved parking, trail and river access, erosion control, and native prairie restoration. The $6.3 million phase finished on time and under budget. Officials celebrated the park’s sustainable upgrades, emphasizing environmental stewardship. Phase 2, set for 2026-2027, will add a visitor center, pavilion, river overlooks, and more.

Police urge anyone with information to call (770) 499-3945. STORY 3: Cobb to Consider Donation, Complete Fullers Park Renovations The Cobb County Board of Commissioners will vote on accepting a $207,482 donation from the East Side Baseball Association to complete renovations at Fullers Park in Marietta. The funds will cover upgrades, including replacing the infield with synthetic turf for better playing conditions and reduced maintenance. The project, part of the 2011 SPLOST program, lacked sufficient funds to finish without the donation.

In this series, we talk to some of the newly hired Head Football Coaches in Georgia as the 2025 season approaches. Today, we talk to Michael Nash, the new Head Coach at Chattahoochee County.
Blue jeans are ubiquitous in country music. Yet dads (and kids) often choose the comfort and flexibility of "soft pants" over the rich history and unforgiving fit of denim. In this episode, the dads explore how blue jeans fit in our kids' active lives, on dads' expanding waistlines and in country music tropes. They're joined by author James Sullivan (who literally wrote the book on blue jeans) to dive deep into the history of blue jeans in America, culture and music. If you've ever wondered where our blue jeans obsession comes from, or whether you'll ever fit into your suddenly "tight-fitting jeans" again, this is the episode for you.To wrap things up, Dave spends the "Change My Mind" segment trying to convince Donnie that even aging dads should embrace the discomfort (read: suffering) of country music festivals in pursuit of growth and, perhaps, the fountain of youth.Show Notes3:32: Should Our Kids Wear Jeans? In a Scary Mommy article, a pediatric occupational therapist suggested that kids should not wear jeans. The dads discuss the merits of blue jeans in the lives of active, knee-skinning children.7:17: Should Dads Wear Jeans? When the size of your pants is a moving target, pants selection gets tricky. The dads weigh the requirements for “dad pants” from ruggedness and cool-factor to flexibility and comfort.9:44: The History Of Blue Jeans: Donnie kicks off an initial history lesson by reading the Levi's website with the voice of an old-timey movie narrator.13:46: Blue Jeans in Western Wear: A western wear aficionado, Donnie, weighs in on denim's role in “the scene” and encourages Dave to check out the rancher pant (or maybe a nudie suit).16:37: Do Stretchy Jeans Still Count? The dads discuss the current trend toward stretchy (but less rugged) jeans-like materials and whether that matters in the world of blue jeans.20:05: Blue Jeans in Country Music: Of the many mentions of blue jeans in country music, the dads hone in on two common tropes: the funny yet often cringey sexual innuendo of “tight fittin' jeans” and the more family-friendly images of nostalgic Americana and simpler times.28:02: Author James Sullivan on Blue Jeans and American Culture: James Sullivan joins the podcast to share a more in-depth look at the history of blue jeans, based on his work writing Jeans: A Cultural History of an American Icon.38:41: How the Hatred of Laundry Led to a Resurgence in Blue Jeans' Popularity: James Sullivan tells the story of how the Denim Council reversed blue jeans' “juvenile delinquent” reputation with a clever marketing campaign.46:25: The Dad Life Sound Check: Donnie discovers a sad country song about laundry: Rebecca Porter's “The Laundry Pile.” Dave looks forward to finding his “Chattahoochee” this summer, though he'd prefer not to wear jeans in the lake like Alan Jackson does in the music video.49:06: Change My Mind: Dave changes gears and encourages Donnie to “choose discomfort” in an effort to change his mind about whether aging dads still belong at multi-day country music festivals.Thank you for listening.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for April 2nd Publish Date: April 2nd Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Wednesday, April 2nd and Happy Birthday to Marvin Gaye ***BIRTHDAY – MARVIN GAYE*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cobb Tables Proposed 24-Townhome Development Federal judge sides with Georgia in 'water wars' with Alabama Cobb PARKS Spring Arts Festival is April 26 All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: MONSTER JAM 2025_FINAL STORY 1: Cobb Tables Proposed 24-Townhome Development The Cobb County Planning Commission delayed a decision on a proposed 24-townhome development at 2318 Powder Springs Road until May 6, citing concerns over stormwater management, parking, and road design. The applicant, Fort & Cole Street, plans two-story, craftsman-style homes with garages and a homeowners association. Cobb DOT raised issues with driveway spacing and private alley design, while the fire department questioned emergency vehicle access. A Cobb Schools representative opposed the project due to potential enrollment impacts at Osborne High. The commission seeks further input from the stormwater division before proceeding. STORY 2: Federal judge sides with Georgia in 'water wars' with Alabama Georgia secured another victory in its "water wars" as a federal judge upheld the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' 2021 decision to allocate more water from Lake Allatoona to meet metro Atlanta and Bartow County's needs. Alabama had challenged the decision, claiming it over-allocated water to Georgia, but the court found negligible impacts on Alabama's water needs. This ruling brings clarity after decades of litigation. Georgia also won a similar case against Florida in 2021 regarding water use from the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers. STORY 3: Cobb PARKS Spring Arts Festival is April 26 The Cobb PARKS Spring Arts Festival will take place on April 26 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Jim R. Miller Park in Marietta. Featuring over 100 artisans, the event offers handmade goods, live music, aerial acts, and art demonstrations like glass-blowing and ceramics. Kids can enjoy the Kidz Korner, interactive crafts, and street entertainment. Attendees can also create art at the Splatter Paint Studio and other interactive booths. Admission and parking are free.

STORY 5: Three Cobb Students Named STAR Student Region Winners Cobb Water celebrated Fat Tuesday with a community parade through the Northwest Water Reclamation Facility, offering hour-long tours to educate participants on wastewater treatment and the impact of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) on sewer systems. Interactive games at various stations highlighted treatment processes, including a poop emoji toss to demonstrate FOG blockages. The event concluded with a fun photo op in a giant paper mâché toilet. Break: MONSTER JAM 2025_FINAL STORY 6: Upcoming Volunteer Opportunities at Cobb County Water System The Cobb County Water System in Marietta announced several volunteer opportunities. Activities include Rain Garden Work Days (various dates in April and May), water quality monitoring workshops (April 23 and May 15), waterway cleanups (April 24 and May 3), and community outreach events like storm drain marking (April 12 and May 8). Volunteers can help with gardening, stream monitoring, litter cleanup, and public education. Training and tools are provided for most events. For details, contact water_rsvp@cobbcounty.org or visit www.cobbstreams.org. STORY 7: State Super Names 44 Cobb Schools 'Math Leaders' Georgia State Superintendent Richard Woods honored 44 Cobb County schools as “Math Leaders” for their significant gains or success in standardized math tests. Schools received banners with ribbons for growth, proficiency, or distinction, with Cobb earning one of the highest percentages of top honors statewide. Ford Elementary also received recognition as a Military Flagship School for supporting military families. Woods emphasized the importance of math alongside literacy, with plans to expand awards to science and social studies next year. Cobb Superintendent Chris Ragsdale praised the district's focus on comprehensive student success.

Break 1: Kia MOG (07.14.22 KIA MOG) STORY 1: Norcross buys historic Woman's Club building for $450K The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation and Norcross officials have agreed on the future of Gwinnett County's first public library building. The city will purchase the 103-year-old Norcross Woman's Club building for $450,000, ensuring its preservation within a historic district. This resolves a dispute that began when the city considered condemning the building. The Trust, which received the building as a donation, aimed to preserve its architectural features. The city plans to invest $230,000 in rehabilitation by 2025. The building, a Carnegie-style Greek Revival structure, will be overseen by the Norcross Historic Preservation Committee. STORY 2: Woman Accused Of Stealing More Than $600K By Submitting Fake Invoices At Her Job The Gwinnett County Police Department has issued warrants for Melissa Dowd, 58, of Monroe, for stealing over $656,000 from her employer, WideData Corporation. Dowd, now in Gwinnett County Jail, is charged with computer theft, forgery, and theft by taking. She allegedly submitted false invoices and altered checks to list herself as the payee, committing these acts over 190 times. Additionally, she doubled her salary by manipulating payroll software and altered her W-2 to evade taxes. The investigation continues, and tips can be reported to the police or Crime Stoppers for a potential cash reward. STORY 3: State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Georgia is lifting a decade-long moratorium on new irrigation wells in Southwest Georgia, effective April 1. Governor Brian Kemp announced that the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will accept groundwater withdrawal permit applications, requiring drought-related measures to protect water supplies in the Lower Flint and Chattahoochee river basins. The moratorium, imposed in 2012 due to drought, was partially eased last year. Extensive research and improved water tracking technology have informed the decision to lift the ban. This move supports farmers recovering from Hurricane Helene and strengthens Georgia's water management efforts. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Tom Wages (08.05.24 OBITS_FINAL) STORY 4: 4M expected to pass through Atlanta airport during Christmas/NYE holiday period If you are traveling this holiday season, be prepared for delays. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport expects around 4 million passengers during the Christmas holiday period, with the busiest day on December 27, seeing over 327,000 travelers. Nationwide, TSA plans to screen 40 million passengers by January 2. Travelers are advised to check ATL.com for parking updates and monitor real-time wait times at the airport. TSA Administrator David Pekoske warns that a potential federal government shutdown could lead to longer security wait times. STORY 5: A white Christmas in Georgia? Snow chances in Atlanta next week? Will we have a white Christmas? The last "white Christmas" in Georgia was in 2010, with snowfall from 1-3 inches in metro Atlanta to 8 inches in the north Georgia mountains, marking the first measurable Christmas Day snow since 1881. This year, sub-freezing temperatures are expected in north Georgia leading up to Christmas, but dry conditions are likely to persist until Christmas Eve or Day, making a snowy holiday unlikely. Many Georgians hope for wintry weather, but a "white Christmas" remains a rare occurrence in the state.

State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Georgia Power hiking rates next month All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Georgia is lifting a decade-long moratorium on new irrigation wells in Southwest Georgia, effective April 1. Governor Brian Kemp announced that the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will accept applications for groundwater withdrawal permits, requiring drought-related measures to protect water supplies in the Lower Flint and Chattahoochee river basins. The moratorium, imposed in 2012 due to drought, was partially eased last year. Extensive research and improved water tracking technology have now enabled the EPD to confidently lift the ban. This decision follows a legal victory over water allocation disputes with Florida and Alabama. STORY 2: Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Jackson Electric Membership Cooperative is accepting applications for the Walter Harrison Scholarship, offering $1,000 for students attending Georgia colleges or technical schools. Eligible applicants must be enrolled or accepted at accredited institutions and reside in a household served by Jackson EMC. Evaluation criteria include financial need, GPA, SAT scores, academic standing, honors, and community involvement. Applications, due by January 31, 2025, can be obtained from school counselors or online. Annually, 15 scholarships are awarded by Georgia's electric cooperatives, honoring Walter Harrison's legacy in the cooperative movement. Since 1985, over $281,500 has been awarded to 292 students. STORY 3: Georgia Power hiking rates next month Georgia's Public Service Commission approved a 3.5% rate increase for Georgia Power customers, raising average residential bills by $5.48 per month. This is part of a series of hikes over recent years, totaling over $40 in increases, partly due to new nuclear reactors at Plant Vogtle and rising fuel costs. Commissioner Lauren "Bubba" McDonald expressed concern about the timing, given recent decreases in food and gas prices, but ultimately supported the increase. Georgia Power's lawyer, Brandon Marzo, stated the hike is necessary due to ongoing investments. The new rates will start on January 1.

STORY 5: Hebron Christian Wins 1st State Football Championship Hebron Christian Academy's football team, under Coach Jonathan Gess, won their first state championship by defeating Prince Avenue Christian 56-28 in the Class AAA-A Private final. This victory marks a significant achievement in Gess's third year, following a previous loss to Prince Avenue. The Lions dominated with a strong ground game, led by quarterback Thomas Stallworth and running back Devon Caldwell. Hebron's defense also excelled, limiting Prince Avenue's offense. Gess, previously successful at Eagle’s Landing Christian, has rapidly transformed Hebron into a competitive program, promising more future successes.

Walker, who lost a 2022 Senate race to Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, has been a prominent advocate for youth sports and previously served as co-chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for December 20th Publish Date: December 20th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Friday, December 20th and Happy Birthday to Dick Wolfe ***12.20.24 - BIRTHDAY – DICK WOLF*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Georgia Power hiking rates next month All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Georgia is lifting a decade-long moratorium on new irrigation wells in Southwest Georgia, effective April 1. Governor Brian Kemp announced that the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will accept applications for groundwater withdrawal permits, requiring drought-related measures to protect water supplies in the Lower Flint and Chattahoochee river basins. The moratorium, imposed in 2012 due to drought, was partially eased last year. Extensive research and improved water tracking technology have now enabled the EPD to confidently lift the ban. This decision follows a legal victory over water allocation disputes with Florida and Alabama. STORY 2: Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Jackson Electric Membership Cooperative is accepting applications for the Walter Harrison Scholarship, offering $1,000 for students attending Georgia colleges or technical schools. Eligible applicants must be enrolled or accepted at accredited institutions and reside in a household served by Jackson EMC. Evaluation criteria include financial need, GPA, SAT scores, academic standing, honors, and community involvement. Applications, due by January 31, 2025, can be obtained from school counselors or online. Annually, 15 scholarships are awarded by Georgia's electric cooperatives, honoring Walter Harrison's legacy in the cooperative movement. Since 1985, over $281,500 has been awarded to 292 students. STORY 3: Georgia Power hiking rates next month Georgia's Public Service Commission approved a 3.5% rate increase for Georgia Power customers, raising average residential bills by $5.48 per month. This is part of a series of hikes over recent years, totaling over $40 in increases, partly due to new nuclear reactors at Plant Vogtle and rising fuel costs. Commissioner Lauren "Bubba" McDonald expressed concern about the timing, given recent decreases in food and gas prices, but ultimately supported the increase. Georgia Power's lawyer, Brandon Marzo, stated the hike is necessary due to ongoing investments. The new rates will start on January 1. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 08.05.24 OBITS_FINAL STORY 4: GCPS art educators earn state honors Two educators from Gwinnett County Public Schools have been honored by the Georgia Art Education Association (GAEA) for their contributions to art education. Amber Arnold, a Fine Arts Instructional Coach, received the 2025 Supervision/Administration Art Educator of the Year Award, while Kelly Rollocks, an art instructor at Berkmar Middle School, was named the 2025 Outstanding Georgia Middle Art Educator of the Year. These awards recognize their exceptional service and commitment to visual arts education. The GAEA annually honors members nominated by peers and selected through a rigorous process, supporting art educators across Georgia. STORY 5: Hebron Christian Wins 1st State Football Championship Hebron Christian Academy's football team, under Coach Jonathan Gess, won their first state championship by defeating Prince Avenue Christian 56-28 in the Class AAA-A Private final. This victory marks a significant achievement in Gess's third year, following a previous loss to Prince Avenue. The Lions dominated with a strong ground game, led by quarterback Thomas Stallworth and running back Devon Caldwell. Hebron's defense also excelled, limiting Prince Avenue's offense. Gess, previously successful at Eagle’s Landing Christian, has rapidly transformed Hebron into a competitive program, promising more future successes. Break 3: STORY 6: AROUND TOWN: Gwinnettians Honored For Dedication To Preserving County's History This edition highlights several notable achievements in Gwinnett County. Five individuals and organizations were inducted into the Preservation Hall of Fame for their efforts in preserving the county's history. Commissioner Jasper Watkins III received the 2024 ASHP/ABHP Joint Leadership Award for his commitment to public health and health equity. State Sen. Nikki Merritt was elected chair of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus, focusing on advocacy for minority communities. Additionally, Northeast Georgia Medical Center Braselton celebrated the birth of its 10,000th baby, marking a significant milestone in its maternal care services. STORY 7: Trump names Herschel Walker to ambassador post President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Herschel Walker, a former University of Georgia football star and longtime friend, as U.S. ambassador to the Bahamas. Walker, who lost a 2022 Senate race to Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, has been a prominent advocate for youth sports and previously served as co-chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. Trump's nominations also include other Georgians like former Sen. David Perdue for ambassador to China and former Sen. Kelly Loeffler for the Small Business Administration. These nominations require Senate confirmation, with Republicans set to control the Senate next month.

In a 6-3 decision by the justices, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that outdoor sleeping bans do not violate the Eighth Amendment. The decision essentially allows cities to make it illegal for unhoused people to sleep outdoors, even when shelter space is unavailable. Dr. Terence Lester, the founder and executive director of Love Beyond Walls, discusses how this ruling will affect those who are unhoused in the Atlanta area. Filmmaker Hal Jacobs and Chattahoochee Riverkeeper Jason Ulseth discuss their new documentary, “Saving the Chattahoochee.” It spotlights Sally Bethea, one of America's first female riverkeepers. The film focuses on her decades-long effort to maintain the health of the river.

First up down on the Mobile-Tensaw Delta we have Peter Jordan with the Lost Angler Fly Shop. With water temps dropping and fish moving deeper, Peter discusses the necessity of becoming proficient with sinking lines and how to maneuver your boat to give you the best shots at getting a streamer past fish.

The Alabama Freshwater Fishing report is your best resource for the Lake Guntersville Fishing Report, Weiss Lake Fishing Report, Lake Eufaula Fishing Report, and all the creeks, rivers, and reservoirs in between. On this week's episode, we talk with the owner of Calico Fly Fishing; Stephen Cook. Calico Fly Fishing is a local Alabama business offering quality fly fishing rods that don't just catch fish, they help keep our rivers clean! Join us as we talk about the Coosa, Tallapoosa, Warrior, and Cahaba models that Stephen offers. Next up we have Stephen Rockarts with Fly Fishing Alabama LLC. Stephen talks a little about the raft he uses to guide fishermen on the Cahaba River. Inflatable rafts are a great option for fishermen who want the small-water capabilities of a canoe or kayak, but want something a little more stable. Finally, we talk with Cahaba Riverkeeper David Butler. While we talk a good bit on this show about the Chattahoochee, Tennessee, and Coosa Rivers, but the Cahaba is very much a “forgotten gem” of a river that every fisherman should get out on at least once to experience some truly wild fishing.

Commercial : CU of GA – UMC 30 STORY 1: river In a tragic case, Breyanla Lachuan Cooper of Stone Mountain was convicted of murdering her 19-month-old son, Faheem, by leaving him in the Chattahoochee River. She pleaded guilty to malice murder, aggravated assault, and concealing the death. As a result, Cooper was sentenced to life in prison by Cobb Superior Court Judge Kellie Hill. The incident came to light when Faheem's lifeless body was found in the river on July 1, 2021, after a firefighter noticed something floating in the water. Cooper initially claimed her son was kidnapped, but surveillance footage and GPS data from her car disproved her story. It is a heart-wrenching case, leaving the family and community devastated...................……... Read more about this at mdjonline.com Story 2: banks During a school board work session, David Banks, a longtime Cobb school board member, expressed his desire to cut the school district's millage rate by 0.5 mills, which was more than the proposed reduction of 0.2 mills by Superintendent Chris Ragsdale. Banks considered the proposed reduction as the largest tax increase in Cobb County history and felt he could not support it. However, the chief financial officer clarified that a larger reduction would result in significant revenue loss, equivalent to cutting 1,100 teachers. The board eventually voted on the 0.2-mill reduction, and Ragsdale considered it necessary to attract and retain great teachers for quality education. Banks remained opposed, expressing concerns about the impact on minorities and some residents avoiding taxes through exemptions. Story 3: motel 6 The Marietta City Council approved a proposal to convert the Motel 6 on Delk Road into apartments. Developer 5th Street Capital Partners presented the conversion as an opportunity to improve public safety and provide affordable housing. The council initially voted in favor of the proposal but was vetoed by Mayor Steve Tumlin. After further discussion, Councilman Joseph Goldstein joined supporters to override the veto. The developer plans to add security measures such as one-year leases, background checks, and security cameras to reduce crime at the property. The decision was supported by those advocating for more affordable housing in the area. we'll be right back Break: ESOG - Dayco – Ingles 2 STORY 4: judge A federal judge ruled that the Cobb County School District cannot be held liable in a lawsuit filed by a group of parents and left-leaning groups, alleging racial gerrymandering in the new school board map. However, the judge denied the Cobb Board of Elections' request to dismiss the claim against them. Consequently, the Board of Elections is the only remaining defendant in the case. The lawsuit, filed by civil rights groups and parents, claimed that the map disenfranchised voters of color. The judge found the school district immune from liability, but the case against the Board of Elections will proceed. STORY 5: habitat Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta and the Cobb Interfaith Habitat Coalition have begun construction on their 22nd annual Habitat house in Mableton. Faith groups, including various churches and Islamic centers, and corporate partners are participating in the build. The future homeowner, Vernita, has worked as a general manager at McDonald's for 21 years and is eager to have a place to call home. The Habitat program's affordable homeownership opportunity made this dream possible for her. The coalition's motto is "We Build to Coexist, We Coexist to Build," emphasizing unity and faith in action. Story 6: cunane Mount Paran Christian softball player Katie Cunane is set to travel to Cuba with an American travel ball team to compete in the Copi Amistad event in Havana. Cunane sees this as an opportunity to embrace the moment and use it as a mission trip to help people in need in Cuba.

The event aims to have American players face players from the junior Olympic and senior Olympic national teams from Cuba and South Korea.

Commercial Slappey Story 1. Standards The Georgia Professional Standards Commission unanimously voted to remove the words "diversity," "equity," and "inclusion" from the state's educator preparation rules, despite opposition from students, educators, and parents. The University System of Georgia requested the removal to clarify expectations for educator preparation programs. Critics argue that this decision, similar to the divisive concept law, will harm teacher preparation and worsen the state's teacher shortage. They believe diversity is essential to effective teaching and that removing it from teacher education will discourage future educators. Despite receiving numerous emails opposing the change, the commission maintains that their intent is to meet the needs of all students. Critics argue that words reflect intent and removing these terms has consequences. STORY 2: Players The Player's Guild at Sugar Hill is gearing up for its 10th anniversary season with a lineup of classic titles. Following the success of their first-ever musical, "Guys and Dolls," the guild announces its upcoming 2023-24 season, featuring three plays and one musical.

In February, the guild will stage "The Diary of Anne Frank," a powerful drama capturing the lives of those hiding from the Nazis. The season concludes with "The Wedding Singer," a musical that takes the audience back to the '80s. The guild aims to provide audiences with wonderful nights at the theatre and expresses gratitude to the community for their support throughout the last decade.

Thorton, along with Bradley Bryant & others, eventually formed a crime syndicate called "The Company." They would smuggle everything from weapons to drugs from South America to the United States. Eventually when the heat came down and over 25 people were arrested, utter chaos ensued. A murder rampage began that included a federal judge and a Florida State Attorney with many others falling victim. Eventually, Thornton would meet his demise during a drug running operation where he would jump from his airplane with multiple weapons, a bullet proof vest, and a duffle bag with 75lb of cocaine strapped to him. This weight however was too heavy, which resulted in his parachute not opening and he subsequently plummeted to his death. However, before he jumped, he threw out multiple bags of cocaine that landed in the Chattahoochee area. Unbelievably, this cocaine was discovered and consumed by a black bear. This is a story you do not want to miss folks....
