ALBION, Ind. — In her jail booking photo from three years ago, you can still see the red mark on Faith Spriggs’ left arm where she injected methamphetamine. Dressed in an orange jumpsuit, her face is droopy, eyes slightly downcast. In the photo, she’s still high. She had just gone to someone’s house to see if she could score more meth when police stopped her and found drugs and a syringe in her purse. Now, Spriggs looks at the photo and sees someone who looks sad and sick. Three years later, she’s a graduate of Noble County Drug Court and hasn’t used for 32 months.
