His two daughters, a girlfriend and friend were arrested on Friday when sheriff of sheriff in East Baton Rouge executed orders for seven different places, finding eight different types of medicines, including approximately 3220 deadly doses of fentanyl.
Ebro spokesman, Casey Rayborn-Hicks, says the department was familiar with the family.
Authorities say the father, Clifton Earl, is known as a large -scale drug trafficking in the area. MEPs say he was running in front of the Sheriff’s office to appear at the place of Plank Foad and has not yet been found.
“He (Clifton Earl) was in federal probation. He had the house in northern Baton Rouge, where drugs stored and distributed. He also had a house in an ascension where he kept the money and had his two daughters who worked with him, “says Hicks. “This investigation was months of them to monitor those places you see about search orders, so they spent months watching, seeing how they store these medicines, distributing these medicines, as well as storing the money they earned from the sale your medicines. “
Hicks says this seizure can lead to a life sentence for these people.
Officials also believe that these drugs were staying in the area, in fact one of the suspects, 18-year-old Cashira Lindsay, was also arrested last fall for possession with the intention of distributing opiates with the Glen Oaks high school.
“It was in this region because, as I said, the parish of East Baton Rouge, as well as the Ascension, they passed between these two places, but it simply shows that they are dealing with these drugs at such a level in our area.” says Hicks.
The sheriff’s service says this is a major seizure that is likely to save many lives in the state. Hicks says, unfortunately, this is not uncommon.
“Our drug department, along with our SCAT team and our band intelligence team, work around the clock to try to remove these deadly drugs from the street and an average of one year, they take advantage of enough fentanyl to kill full Tiger Stadium, “Hicks says.
If you know something about this investigation or location of Clifton Earl, call the sheriff’s office or the stoppy of the Sofia region at (225) 344-7867.
