From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast presented by Engineered Solutions of Georgia. Today is Thursday August 17th and I'm Brian Giffin.
Michael Dalton Waters, a Woodstock man, has been sentenced to eight years in prison followed by over three decades of probation after pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter and distribution of controlled substances. The guilty plea stemmed from an incident in May 2021 when Waters gave a friend a lethal combination of fentanyl and a prescription drug, leading to her overdose death. Superior Court Judge Tony Baker sentenced Waters to a 40-year term, with the initial eight years to be served in prison. Waters' actions caused the death of Talley Power, who had consumed the substances believing they were Percocet. Waters is required to undergo mental health and substance abuse treatment during his probation, with no contact allowed with family members of the victims.
