Georgia law mandates a 10-year minimum sentence for such offenses. Separately, Todd Lawrence Pitts, 38, of Bishop, was arrested for fentanyl possession during a probation search. Authorities had been monitoring Pitts, suspecting him of selling fentanyl, a highly potent and dangerous synthetic opioid. Both suspects remain in custody at the Morgan County Jail.
