By Jonathan Martin Verified| WBNS-TV (Columbus, OH) Verified ATLANTA — James White is Fulton County's newest prosecutor. It's a job - a second chance - even he finds hard to believe. White spent two years in prison, convicted of armed robbery in Coweta County in 2005. “By 17, I quit school like everyone in my household and by 21, I was in prison like most of the young Black guys in my community," he said. While locked up, White decided to educate himself. “Man, I just, I became an encyclopedia," he said.
