SEARS, Chief Justice,
concurring.
The record shows that Terry remains an imminent threat to his former wife and children. It would not be unreasonable for him to remain in prison for the rest of his life. With that said, the court’s decision to allow Terry the freedom to enjoy the pleasures of Toombs County is an act of grace and mercy. If for some reason he needs to leave Toombs County, he can do the same thing any inmate would have to do, namely, approach the judge and explain why, given his extreme history of violence, kidnapping, and stalking, he should be allowed to leave the county and the close supervision of local law enforcement.
With these observations, I join the Court’s opinion in full.
