addiction recovery ebulletin Bubble Gum Bandit
Dec. 25, 2019 – In March 2010, McAuliffe, then 42, was arrested and booked into the Coweta County jail. He had hidden his cocaine use — which started when he was a teenager — from many in his life, but the father of five couldn’t hide any longer. He was the “Bubble Gum Bandit” and his mugshot made the news.
“I just about ruined my life and my relationship with everybody,” McAuliffe told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. That isn’t where his story ended, and McAuliffe knows just how lucky he is. But moving beyond his darkest days is a battle he’s still fighting. “It’s amazing I’m still here. I thank the Lord every day for that,” he said. “I live and re-live it every day.”
