“We’ll never be able to quantify the lives that were saved by removing these dangerous criminals and this poison from our streets, but unquestionably, through the excellent investigative work of the men and women of the JSO and our law enforcement partners, our community’s safer and more secure because of this operation,” Waters said.
Six others were also arrested in the operation: Wallace Corbin, Raymond Cash, Gary Harris, Benjamin Wilson, Eric Massey Jr. and Unique Haynes.
