OKLAHOMA CITY — “The Dogs of Lexington,” a new documentary by director Greg Mellott, director of the Oklahoma City Community College Film and Video Program, and a number of his students, is being presented March 27 at a special screening hosted by the Kirkpatrick Foundation. The film offers an up-close glimpse behind prison walls of a world-class dog-training prison program at the Lexington Correctional Facility. The program, the second of its kind in the nation, pairs rescued dogs with inmates who train the dogs; the animals are then placed with families, elderly, veterans, or facilities in Oklahoma. Lee Fairchild, Oklahoma Department of Corrections program director of “Friends for Folks,” is featured in the film, as are a number of inmates and, of course, the dogs. The film was made possible by a grant from the Kirkpatrick Foundation. Read More. |

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

There are a few lawyers who can take a case with bad facts and bad law and make it into something special. When you’re looking for that type of lawyer, it can be especially hard to find. Do you evaluate based on educational background? Number of accolades? Do you trust a referral from a friend? One lawyer may have done a good job for your friend, but that is because their situation was much different and the lawyer you need has a different focus. Do you look for a lawyer who is board certified in a particular field? If you are looking for a trusted Waco Local Counsel it is important to see what the people in that locality think of the lawyer’s services. Understanding the nuances of particular judges and local customs is critical in getting heard. There are few ways that it could pay off poorly to find the right lawyer for your case. That’s why it’s a safe bet to find the best people for your job.
