18 arrested on drug charges

The sheer ignorance of some people amazes me. "all n yr mind", it is easy for you to say that if you have never been addicted. People who have been addicted will testify that more often than not, they were addicted from the very first time they used the meth. Granted, if they had never used it in the first place, there wouldn't be a problem for them, but sometimes people make mistakes. People underestimate the power of this drug. It is NOT even compareable to marijuana or alcohol! I have been through the addiction with a very close loved one. It is very hard to watch someone you love battle this demon when you are a non user, like myself. I watched this loved one go from a confident, hard working, family man who had made a nice home for his family, waste away to a shell. He spent his family's life savings on this drug in just a matter of monthes(almost $70,000). He became paranoid, chasing shadow monsters, and digging at the "bugs" in his skin. He would stay awake for days at a time, because he was paranoid that everyone was out to get him and would come in and kill him in his sleep. His wife, tried to hold her family together (she was a non user too) but after a while, she had to take the kids and leave to make it safe for them. Until, a meth user has the "desire" to kick the addiction, no rehab center is going to beat this addiction. The user has to WANT it for themself. They can't do it for mom, or grandma, or even their children. This drug has a tendancy to make the user turn against those who love them the most. This guy finally realized that his family wasn't coming home to him in that condition. He feel to his knees and began to pray. Through the grace and mercy of God above, not clinical rehab, he overcame his addiction. He has been clean for 7 years now. He attends church regulary and if you ask him how he beat the addiction, he is quick to tell you that it was nothing but the power of God! He is now a productive, hard working citizen again. And yes, he still has his wife and children again. My point is this...We may look at these people and see dope heads or meth heads, but we need to keep in mind that they are still people who have a mother, father, wife, children or whoever that love them. Most of all, they have a God that loves them! No matter what they have done, he will still take them back and forgive them. They just need to ask him to forgive them and ask Him into their hearts. He is waiting with an outstretched hand. There is still hope for these people if they want it. I just wanted them to know.

Thank You & Very Well Said.You are mostly Definetely A Christian who has a Open heart to GOD.Bless you so MUCH!!Now if everyone would have this opinion Addicted people would have an honest chance of a real life!

Is that the Tracy Turner who used to work at Speedway? You gottat wonder if she was dealing or was it her old man... Billy has been around the block a few times. Wonder is she is taking the hit for him?

you people should no by now that billy is in prison and they were split up before he went in cause she aint nuttin by a slut so just keep your mouths shut on billy

The people arrested for the drugs is just a beginning. It is sad for their families and friends, children. GOOD JOB RUSH COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND THOSE SURROUNDING COUNTIES THAT HELPED. HOPEFULLY YOUR EFFORTS SAVED SOMEONE'S LIFE. LAW ENFORCEMENT DID NOT MAKE THOSE PEOPLE MAKE OR SELL THE DRUGS. Your wrong about no one caring. If those arrested weren't/aren't Ordered to get drug counseling, how many do you think will get it on their own....Good job guys in law enforcement.

To all of you that are bashing these people---get a life. Its easy for you to go around and say bad things about others, but put your feet in someone elses shoes. I am related to someone that got arrested and I know several others. They are mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, cousins, ect ect....they have made mistakes, and now they are paying for it. A few have never been in trouble for drugs before, so why would you just assume they are horrible people. I hope they get the help that they need. Its good to know that there is a loving, forgiving, helpful community they get to come back to....Note the sarcasm....Seriously...these people need help...Why dont you step up and help these people....Just a worried family member trying to stand up for my loved one/s.....

Yeah people suck and just like addicts everybody has a destiny and some people are just destin to be stupid,and everybody knows you can't fix stupid.

Actually these people can fix their problems if they want to. No one can make them, but if they want the help they can have it..Did they make bad mistakes?? sure, but can they also fix those mistakes?? sure...dont bash before you know the entire story....maybe, just maybe that something happened in their life, a real serious situation, and that they are addicted to drugs because of what happened in their life....just dont judge...not all of them are horrible monsters

Follow the chain of command,street dealers are the
bottom of the totem pole.The people bringing the
drugs into your town,are living in the burbs,in the
big house,like fat rats,they are the respected
citizens of your communities , The Beautiful Ones.

Go ahead and try to help,youll get a PFA slapped on you so fast,you
wont know what happened.You will be accused of everything under the Sun, when all you
have done all your life is work your as.. off.Try to help criminals and you will
be accused of being the criminal,because Criminals Have Rights!Criminals Know the
System!Criminals PLAY the System.Honest people dont rate.I Know.

I agree these people have problems and they need help but why do people need to be such pussys and put on a wire to take them down instead of letting the cops do there own job to let everyone know the one that put the wire on bub is number 166 he believes is aron starky so if anyone knows this ci number please let it be known i am also related to kenneth bub tye and if anyone has a problem with that you can take it up with me bub called me the day he got arrested and the way the cops busted him really was dirty he didnt even have any drugs in his house when they came in on him!!!!

You are not smart at all to have said this. Take your butt to class in the morning and pay attention to the teachers. They are there to help

who was the 18 ppl

Who the hell are you ppl to judge anyone that you dont know anything about...I know 2 of these people personally and they are my extended family and I regret the fact that ppl can sit back and pass judgement so easily when they have no idea what is goin on with them....People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones and for every person that had something bad to say about these ppl have made mistakes of their own how dare you have anything to say just because your dirty laundry wasnt aired in the paper...
