ABAC ALUMNI HONOR ZEBULON RESIDENT - The ABAC Alumni Association at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College recently honored Mack Crawford of Zebulon with the Distinguished Alumnus Award.  ABAC President David Bridges (left) made the presentation. Crawford graduated from ABAC in 1974 and then transferred to the University of Georgia where he received his bachelor’s degree and a juris doctorate from the Woodrow Wilson College of Law.  He was a partner in the Crawford and Morton Law firm in Zebulon before winning a seat for the Georgia House of Representatives where he served as the Chairman of the Joint House-Senate Legislative Oversight Committee on Indigent Defense.  Governor Sonny Perdue later appointed Crawford as the Director of the Georgia Public Defender Standards Council.  In 2010, Crawford was appointed to the Superior Court of the Griffin Judicial Circuit.
