About

The Special Enforcement Bureau’s Narcotics Unit is comprised of specially trained detectives and deputies tasked to conduct long-term and short-term investigations with the goal of suppressing and deterring organized crime, narcotics-related crimes and vice-related activities within Rutherford County.

The unit prevents, investigates and suppresses criminal activity by using proven and innovative methods.

Drug operations consist of covert surveillance, intelligence gathering, use of informants, and the preparation and execution of search warrants.

Most narcotics-related investigations require extensive man-hours to complete; therefore, it may take several weeks or even months to develop enough evidence to arrest, to successfully prosecute, and to effectively shut down a known drug or vice operation.
