In yesterdays DT they stated one of their headline wishes as being; "Sheriff runs last drug dealer out of Wicomico County."
Well, the problem I see here is there's NO mention of Chief Webster and the Salisbury Police Department participating. After all, most of the Drug Dealers are within the City Limits.
Sadly, what the Daily Times doesn't realize is the actual performance the SPD Special Task Force Team has been doing. There's a particular name for this group but I'm drawing a blank at the moment. Nevertheless, these guys are kicking ass and getting no credit whatsoever.
Now you might ask why they're not being recognized. One of the reasons for such is the fact that in many cases they are trying to get their suspect to cut a deal and lead them to bigger and better things. This could mean they're working them all the way up until the court door swings and they're actually going to face a Judge for their crime.
Exposing ANY information about who's involved, when, where and so forth would jeopardise their case and negotiations. That being said, I can just tell you these guys are doing some VERY impressive work and quite frankly my hat is tipped to Chief Webster and the entire Team.
Perhaps the Chief should have a conversation with the DT, (not that he cares) and let them know they too are involved in fighting crime?

I think the name you couldnt think of was the SWAT team..
Very little mention of the shootings that happened over the holiday, either.
CAT Team?
Anyway, they would have to admit there is crime in salisbury before taking credit for fighting it!
I feel for SPD, they bust their butts and get nothing in return! WCSO gets all the credit. (Not that they dont deserve it too)
My hat goes off to them too. There's too little of them tho and too many bad guys. They do a hell of a job and I give them Kudos for doing it. From one LEO to another! Keep up the great work!
Joe, Salisbury's PD's C.A.T. Team is made up of some great officers. I know they probably won't give them to you but see if you can get their stat's for the first week of the year. Let's see what they have done and give them credit. I know these officers and know the good work they do. From one LEO to another, good job and keep it up. You guys are keeping it real.
DT
DT,
I personally know how well they're doing and it's quite impressive. However, without Chief Webster agreeing to my producing that information, I would never do so without his approval.
