If they were known to the police for that long as criminals, they were probably also known to the local sheriffs as a reliable source of bribes. Either the new sheriff wasn’t doing that or the head of the scumbag family thought they didn’t have to pay anymore. Maybe both!

it is Polk County. sherriff is Grady. Fucking. Judd.
the most criminally corrupt possible scenario is the correct one in your assumption.
Grady. Fucking. Judd. “constitutional sheriff” and asshole extrordinaire. media wh@re along the lines of Joe Arpiao, never met a camera he wouldn’t ham it up for.
avoid Polk County and Grady. Fucking. Judd.

If it were more than one gun, they’d have to call him Pop-Pop Rogers. :man_shrugging:

224 grams of fentanyl??? Holy shit! That’s huge! LD50 in monkeys is 0.03mg/kg. This is a lot of dead people, man.

Enough to kill every cop in a five county radius that looks at it without sunglasses on.

You forget that the users have very high tolerance for narcotics. 0.03mg/kg is just a good roaring buzz for these folks.

But the Sacklers are white, rich, and have shareholders. Maybe if the Rogers’s offered an IPO and sold shares on wall street they’d have transcended from despicable drug dealers to highly respected white collar criminals. That’s how it works right? LOL. seriously though, you’re so spot on it’s nauseating.
