LAURENS COUNTY, Ga. — A Dublin attorney was arrested and charged with smuggling contraband to an inmate on Thursday morning, according to the Laurens County Sheriff’s Office.

The smuggling contraband charge covers various prohibited items, like cell phones and tobacco.
The Laurens County Sheriff’s Office is still investigating as more charges could be filed.
The Georgia Bar Association website lists Morgan, who graduated from Washington University in Missouri, as a member in good standing.
She’s been an attorney in Georgia since 2017, and she has no disciplinary actions on record.
While the site lists her as working in the Public Defenders Office in Dublin, they said she hasn’t worked there since last year.
Morgan is currently an attorney with her own law firm, The Morgan Law Firm LLC. She formed it on Oct. 23, 2023.
We reached out to Morgan for comment but we did not immediately hear back. We’ll update this story with more information when it becomes available.
