He thought he would get a ticket and move on. He was wrong. "The officer said ’did you know your license was suspended?’ I said no," Marcus said. The officer told him he had a suspended license out of Macon. "I haven’t been to Macon in three years," Marcus said. But he has been driving on a suspended license for the last year. For a crime he didn’t commit. Marcus gave 11Alive’s Ryan Kruger the citation that’s on his record with the Department of Driver Services. The name Gerien Marcus was confused for Marcus Green.

Tom and Arnisteen Clark have been married for 68 years. The only time the Fayette County couple were apart was when Tom was stationed in Korea while serving in the Army, so it was difficult when the two were forced to stay in separate rooms after they checked in Piedmont Fayette Hospital. The two are staying on an orthopedic floor, in which all the rooms are private. It is against state regulations to put two patients in a private room, according to Charlsie Niemiec of Piedmont Fayette Hospital. Tina Mann, the a manager at the hospital, went out of her way to make sure that Tom, 96, could visit his 92-year-old wife in her room several times a day. "I just can’t be away from her, she’s the finest woman in the world," Tom Clark said.

Pota Coston was elected in 2014 – the first black elected official in Fayette County’s history. This was, many said, in large part due to a judge’s decision to force districts within the county to vote for their own commissioners. The judge, at the time, said the decision would give voices to under-represented communities, namely the black community, which makes up 21% of Fayette County.
