The illegal sale, use and distribution of narcotics is recognized as a significant contributor to violent crimes, burglaries and thefts which can dramatically affect the quality of life in our community. Therefore, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office is making every effort to take drugs off the street by targeting individuals who are active participants in this unsavory underworld. This is being accomplished through aggressive patrol, undercover operations and interagency investigations with local, state and federal drug enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n

In the past week the Lee County Sheriff’s Office made a total of 37 drug arrests. To educate and enhance awareness of the Sheriff\u2019s Office daily activities in this endeavor the following arrests are being listed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
