A man out on probation for drug charges less than a year ago and a woman from Douglas were recently arrested following a search at a local apartment. On August 7, 2024, at around 1:00 PM, Detectives from the Coffee County Sheriff's Office Drug Unit were conducting a proactive narcotics patrol in Douglas. During their patrol, a detective spotted 30-year-old Christopher Lamar Hawkins, who had outstanding warrants for fleeing police and methamphetamine possession, driving a white 2021 Kia Sorento. Hawkins was stopped in front of apartment 203/204 on N Wheeler Ave, where two detectives approached him. Breanna Henderson, 33, then came out of apartment 203 to "investigate what was going on with Hawkins" and appeared to whisper with Hawkins during his arrest. The report states that Henderson, who temporarily lived with Hawkins, began whispering with him "presumably about nefarious activities due to Hawkins's previous history with drug distribution and evading law enforcement."

Disclaimer: This article was written with the help of A.I. software. The term "spoiled child" is often thrown around, but what does it really mean? According to Dr. Denitrea Vaughan, Psy.D., LPC, a Texas-based supervisor with Thriveworks, "'Spoiled,' as in a 'spoiled child,' can be defined as characteristics of excessive self-centered and immature behaviors due to a lack of age-appropriate boundaries being set by parents." Although parents generally don’t intend to "spoil" a child, certain parenting strategies—often born from well-meaning intentions or a reflection of how they were raised—can lead to this outcome. The consequences are far-reaching, with specific traits often carrying over into adulthood, impacting both workplace dynamics and personal relationships.
