"Drug Dealers in Scott County have been and will continue to be targeted by determined Sheriff's Deputies as we rid our community of these killer criminals. The drug Fentanyl has killed citizens in our county, as it has across the country. I will not rest, nor will my deputies, until we have rid our county of those who feed on the weakness of others, with no care for the eventual result. Pack your bags and leave or bring your toothbrush for your stay in the Scott County Jail because we will find you."
