MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - A graphic video showing the ravages of
methamphetamine on real Alabamians has been sent to all state high
schools.
The Alabama District Attorney's Association worked with the
governor and the state Department of Education to develop and
distribute the video. The fast-paced video shows before and after
pictures of Alabama meth addicts, with decaying teeth and gaunt,
severely wrinkled faces dotted with sores.
Gov. Bob Riley says the video is the state's latest tool in the
Zero Meth campaign, which is designed to discourage people from
trying the illegal drug.
The governor joined district attorneys and education officials
to preview the video Thursday at the Capitol.
