Shuttin' Em' Down!

GRIFFIN - Begnning in May of 2016, Agents of The Griffin Police Department’s Special Investigations Unit began an undercover narcotics investigation entitled “Shuttin’ Em’ Down”. This investigation was in response to citizen complaints about street level drug distribution within their communities; effecting their quality of life due to the constant disturbances and fear of violence they faced on a daily basis. Drug agents conducted investigations that included undercover narcotics purchases from over sixty (60) defendants throughout the city that resulted in more than two-hundred (200) criminal arrest warrants for various violations of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act, and other criminal statutes.

On August 26, 2016, representatives from each division of Griffin Police Department in cooperation with the Warrant and Detention Divisions of the Spalding County Sheriff’s office, Probation and Parole Officers from the Georgia Department of Corrections, and Southern Crescent Technical College Campus Police, began serving warrants on the offenders charged during this investigation. Lt. Tony Thomason, head of the Griffin Police Department’s Special Investigations Unit, stated “We rely on the citizens of Griffin to contact us with information about problems effecting their neighborhoods, and we appreciate those that do. This operation was the direct result of those contacts. We would not have been successful without the cooperation and involvement of the Citizens that are concerned about our community. We will continue to make every effort possible to partner with our communities and make the City of Griffin safer for everyone.” Thomason continued, “This investigation is ongoing, with further warrants and arrests expected as other offenders are identified.”

If you have any questions or concerns please call the Griffin Police Department’s Drug Tip Line at 678-692-0452. You can leave your name and number to be contacted by an agent, or you can leave information and choose to remain anonymous.
