Meth on Mike Padgett


An Augusta man has been charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute.

Ryan Malone, a 23-year-old who lives along the 3500 block of Mike Padgett Highway, was busted Monday on the felony offense.

Mr. Malone is part of a growing trend of meth abuse. In fact, statistics show that meth use and abuse is a $23.4 billion problem in the United States and a $1.3 billion problem in Georgia. In the most recent statistics, 32 percent of the federal drug offenses in Georgia are meth-related.

  2. I guess you would say that he got caught up .. and i suspose all mothers would make excuses for their children and say that it is because of who they were hanging around but really he made his own choice to do it . I mean come on .
    Hopefully he will learn to get a real job, and do right by his kids if not for his self.
