Resume:
Kent County-Spear headed by the Delaware State Police Kent County Drug Task Force, Kent County Governor’s Task Force, The Drug Enforcement Administration and other assisting Law Enforcement Agencies amounting to the utilization of over 100 Law Enforcement personnel have completed a successful fight against the War on Drugs.

During a six month long investigation which targeted drug distribution and dog fighting in Kent County, the Delaware State Police was able to identify and arrest key figures who distribute illegal drugs throughout the County and State.

During this investigation Delaware State Police identified Marquinn Bordley, Nathaniel Evans, William Loper and DeAndrea Thomas, Paul Wills, Juan Carlos Benitez and Luis A. Sanchez as “Major” cocaine and marijuana distributors.

The aforementioned distribution “Kingpins” were responsible for supplying the communities of Rodney Village-Dover, Star Hill-Camden, Meadowbrook Acres-Magnolia and Woodland Manor Mobile Home Park-Felton.

Delaware State Police further determined their extended drug distribution network included Dewayne Bordley- Latasha Bordley and Tanya Butler, Janet Earleen Bordley, Latoya Barlow, Shakesha Sullivan, Naywanna Johnson, Sharon Clay and Nicole Thomas.

This criminal nexus has been linked to the distribution of approximately 3 to 4 kilograms of cocaine and approximately 20 to 25 pounds of marijuana per month throughout Kent County Delaware. Based on figures through information obtained from informants, undercover drug purchases and drug sale trends the estimated annual potential profits for this type of distribution network would exceed $4,000.000.00 annually.

On June 15th and 16th twenty-one search and seizure warrants were executed in connection with this drug investigation. As a result of these search warrants at residences in Dover, Camden, Felton and Magnolia $206,032.00 United States Currency, over a pound of crack cocaine, Seven pound of powder cocaine, marijuana, Heroin, ecstasy, Xanax pills, Vicodin pills, thirteen Firearms, eleven cars and nine canine used for dog fighting were removed from the streets.

Looks like the war on people who use drugs is a huge success.

The government can't allow people to own their own bodies now can they?

How many of these people are involved in some sort of crime other than attempting to control their own body? How many violent crimes associated with this group?


Wouldn't it be better to focus on violent crime against persons and property - like our Constitution dictates?

Great Job guys, keep up the good work!
NOW...why isn't this stuff happening in Wicomico County???
Don't we have a drug task force here?

Use drugs . . . commit crimes.

Therefore, drugs are illegal.

Problem is this: The U.S. Constitution authorizes a jurisdiction for COMMON LAW, not STATUTORY LAW.

Preventive crime fighting is unconstitutional. We do not want our government to PREVENT crime. We want it to prosecute crime.

If a druggie commits a crime then prosecute him / her for the crime. However, using drugs is not a crime.

Statutory Law is unconstitutional.

Educate yourself!

Excellente! Wonder if my town could borrow the DE police departments so the drugs can be uprooted here? After all it just keeps growing even so the MD police departments are overlooking it and some have flat out refused to investigate the constant drug activity.

Many communities on the shore have DEA implanted in them.
While this was a huge bust - I'll bet they'll all be back out on the streets in a bit doing the same things they were doing but will have to do even more now because they owe the big guys all that money.

The drugs are brought into the country by the military and CIA

9:01 if I buy rhino tusks and it's illegal, they I get busted.

By being the illegal market for the illegal product, I contribute to the extinction of the rhino.

You buy drugs, you support dealers who kill people, threaten witnesses, strong arm businesses just like Mafia.

it IS the mafia - the cia - the military - big banking.

silly person. its not thugs who created and run this massive illegal drug market. Heroin is the 3rd most valuable commodity in the world by mass. It is more valuable than gold, silver, platinum.

This thing supports the black ops of the CIA and the control of foreign dictators by Germanic Secret Societies.

Dig a little deeper and you will learn some amazing things about your country and the people who run it

Wow good job Delaware. I must agree that the lack of attempts to carpet bomb, napalm, and any means available, it doesn't look like the USA wants to irredacate the opium poppies of Afghanistan.
