I live in South Webster and personally know all but 2 of the people here. The top 3 are drug addicts, and the middle 2 are the columbus dealers, who are also addicts, and the bottom two own the house in which the drugs were sold in and were also bad addicts. Mitchell and Matthew are twin brothers and are very dumb. I lived here my whole life and these are the main people where most of us get our drugs. Now theres a whole town full of drug sick people, the whole town is ate up eith addicyion to pills and heroin and crack. I feel for my people. Larry and Scott are bad I.V. users and so are the rest but those two took things to the next level by robbing the bank and buying drugs from the others. I feel sorry for them. I'll pray for them.
