We should demand drug test of out elected officials. How can we expect to stop the problem if the problem has to supply some of our the top-shots too?

Being a first offense and because he was a public servant for x-years before the temptation became more than an honest man could bear the good sheriff will probably loose his morning coffee and second doughnut for a year.

Give me a break: the man is just another drug dealer. He is one of those bad people who ruin the lives of our children. He should get double penalty in a hard confinement.

All the crackdowns in the world will not remove all of these corrupt officials from their posts. The root cause of this problem is obvious from an economic standpoint. The value of these drugs is *thousands* of times greater than the cost to produce them. It's not realistic to expect the police NOT to be corrupt given the market conditions. This is the primary failure of the war on drugs, and only 1) a shift in policy, or 2) a full police state, will make significant dents in the drug market.

Police everywhere have been getting away with this sort of corruption for years. If you get caught with 2 pounds of weed and only 28 grams show up in court are you as the criminal going to stand up and say there was more then that.Of course you're not, so the police get away with it. They need to be knocked off this high pedestal they've put themselves on. BUST THEM ALL.

Hollywood showed us a peace of these types of crimes and corruptions.
We thought those movies were a made up tail!

Enron and others exposed us more how these lies and corruptions are in our lives today and affecting us today.

I hope everyone keep up these types Crackdowns.
I love to see how people amazed of peoples riches and not even think how they got them in the 1st place.
If your corrupted, you not safe anymore. American has changed!

I suspect sadly, this is not even scratching the surfaces!
The more crackdown the better the world will be.

Proof that cash corrupts. I hope they throw away the key when they lock them up. I am sure that this kind of stuff reaches higher up the ladder than a county sheriff, it would probably scare the hell out of you.

Hopefully this is the start of many more crackdowns across the country. You KNOW this has to be taking place elsewhere as well.

The stunts pulled by the Henry County Sheriff's Office are a huge disgrace to the county and everyone living in the area. I myself have been living in Henry County since I was born and with the already declining economy, this show of corruption will make it even worse.

It'a about time the "snitch culture" wielded against the common people turned on the benefactors! Not so beneficial to law enforcement now, is it?

Great story, great message.
