I praise the Officers, Agents and Investigators involved in these cases. In several of these cases much time and effort was put into these investigation into the manufacturing of Methamphetamine in Prentiss County. Maybe this will make a significant dent in the drug business in Prentiss County. Other arrests and charges are expected to arise from these investigations, hopefully leading to the solving of several thefts.
