I agree with Tnamstaff. There are a lot more things that washington county needs to worry about
I just wonder if they were as dissappointed in these two individuals as they were when THEIR OWN LEAD INVESTIGATOR(Sgt. Remine) was busted for having pot??? After doing his best to ruine my life ( which for the record, was dismissed!!!) while being a user hiself. Sounds like they should concentrate more on their own!!!
I can’t believe this even made the news. I wish that our local law enforcement would concentrate more on people who pose an actual threat to our community. It seems like a waste of time and taxpayers money to me.
2 lbs of pot. how much did this sting cost the taxpayers in total?
