Tennessee Speaker of the House Cameron Sexton recently spoke to the graduates of the 16th Judicial District Recovery Court for Rutherford and Cannon Counties. The six graduates also heard from Circuit Court Judge Jimmy Turner, Recovery Court Director LaChelle Ricks and Tennessee Department of Corrections Commissioner Lisa Helton. During his remarks, Sexton reminded the group that everyone has things they struggle with, and although they will carry their addiction for the rest of their lives, they now have an opportunity to go out and help others. Judge Turner said the graduates “have worked hard to turn their lives around, and the community is better for it.” Read more about the event in a release from the court.
