            Sheriff Jimmy Harris states that on November 16th DeKalb County Drug Task Force, Marshall County Drug Task Force, and DeKalb County Deputies went to a residence on County Road 482 in the Painter community to execute a search warrant. After a search of the residence they found 5 pounds of pure Ice Methamphetamine with a street value worth $205,500.00, 2 long guns, 1 pistol, $8077.00 in cash, surveillance equipment and 1 vehicle was seized from the residence.

            Sheriff Harris says “So far this month the DeKalb County Drug Task Force has made 5 trafficking cases with a net worth of $12,000, seized approximately 7 pounds of Ice methamphetamine with a street value of $317,800 and have recovered several stolen items. Our Task Force is doing an outstanding job not only in our County but working with other Counties and Agencies as well. This is why it has been made possible for them to seize this much Ice Methamphetamine. Thanks to the Marshall County Drug Task Force for the help in making this case possible.”
