Sheriff Goodin advised the following... "Scott County Sheriff's Deputies are leading the way in the fight against drug dealers...this search warrant was executed in an apartment complex in Austin, where multiple families with children, elderly residents, and just honest law-abiding people reside, trying to live in peace and with a sense of security. Again, I say...leave Scott County if you are dealing drugs...as the Sheriff, I promise you that you will be arrested and housed in the people's jail that my staff and I oversee. Get out of Scott County if you are a drug dealer...our citizens do not want you here!".

NOTE: The Austin Police Department, Indiana Department of Family and Children - Scott County Office, and the Scott County Prosecutors Office assisted the Sheriff's Office with this investigation.
