“As a parent I cannot fathom someone knowingly putting money and drugs over the safety of children. With several pounds of drugs so carelessly out in the open, it is truly a miracle that something tragic did not happen before now. I want to applaud the investigative work of my detectives and the coordinated efforts that led to another poison pusher off the streets of Charlotte County.” – Sheriff Bill Prummell
