Thank you Officer Thumann for your hard work and long hours! Fayette County appreciates you!
Thank you, LOBOS! You are one awesome dog.
Really??? What money? The cops don’t sell the 6 million dollars of cocaine after they confiscate it. Maybe they send it all to the pentagon and get the cash street value mailed back to their police department.
This is all well and fine. But I just gotta know, “Where’s All The $$$ Going?” This is the one thing that perplexes me. Just Sayin’s Zall…
Its cocaine RG……hopefully its destroyed.
Yeah, I had that figured out when I read the article. The part I’m speaking about is the cash, cars, trucks etc…etc…
R.G. –
Just because it’s WORTH $6 mil doesn’t mean that it is sold and profit gained…. What $$$ SMH
