CAMILLA, Ga. (WTXL)--A south Georgia district attorney is remembering U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
Scalia was found dead over the weekend at a Texas ranch from what appears to be natural causes. He was 79 years old.
They hunted together in Mitchell County with others in their profession. Joe Mulholland says Justice Scalia lived life to the fullest.
District Attorney Joe Mulholland says whoever replaces Scalia has some big shoes to fill.
"I had the pleasure of having him down a couple of times over the past four to five years," said Mulholland. "One particular time, I had a cigar with him after dinner talked about hunting, and the law."
Scalia has gave him this piece of wisdom he'll remember for the rest of his life.
"There's more important things than just your profession," said Mulholland. "You have to have some kind of quality outside of what you do, and seeing how he was able to manage that. I think that made him a better justice."
Mulholland says another hunting trip was being planned with Scalia.
