Upon searching the entire residence, investigators located 29 one pot laboratories as well as other items used in the production of methamphetamines. The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office Rapid Response Unit responded and collected and disposed of all hazardous materials.

Kudos to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office! We wish he would be our sheriff and clean up Jefferson County, which is a meth-magnet. Our sheriff doesn’t seem to have what it takes to shut them down.
