Just when you don't think our LEO's are doing anything (since its not reported), a report like this shows they are always doing something.
Great job LEOs - keep on keepin on!!!!! You are truly appreciated by most!!!!!!!!!!
And it only cost several millions dollars to arrest 100 people. Who will all be back on the streets this year. Also no dent at all in the drug market.. Just freed up some corner space for new younger dealers... The drug war only makes things much worse and it a huggggggge waste of our money
So I guess we should just give up and make heroin and cocaine a free open air drug market...you are crazy...
That is VA. Limelight Lewis is out there looking for revenue to buy more toys.
Please people this is only to pacify the masses, law enforcement knows they can't keep up the drug epidemic. They exploit misdemeanor paraphernalia, possession charges here in wicomico county like their making a difference

This needs to be done in Wicomico County! Where do you think all the drugs are coming from and being stored? But the right people are being paid to look the other way.
Awesome work by such small agencies. Keep it up!
Drugs are coming from Philadelphia, at least the heroin is. I have a problem with 4 different traffic checkpoints were set up.
IF I were to see an open drug market I would not know who to report it to.
ALSO I don't want to give my name and see it printed on a report that is open to any attorney in town. Lets face it..(at one time) ..they were some of the best clients for these guys.
When I see something that I know is illegal going on (car jacking, etc....I....along with most of the population just look the other way so as to not be caught up in either side.
I saw a drug deal going down at the store on the road that goes to Mount Vernon across from McDonald's in Princess Anne. The buyer was parked in the lot to the right of the store and just sitting there and then a black man drove up behind him in a blue car. The buyer got out, walked to the car and handed the car driver something and the guy handed him something back and then they both drove away. Whole thing only took 5 seconds. Better keep an eye out on that place police officers.
