Sharing an article to point out the great efforts of law enforcement and the judicial system making a positive difference everyday for everyone!Every day our Troopers and Officers are out there working hard to make Georgia safer. While every stop has the potential to change one life, some stops have a far greater reach. Recently, our hardworking Troopers and K-9’s conducted a traffic stop on a tractor trailer on Interstate 20 in Carroll County for a traffic violation. After speaking with the driver, our Trooper requested K-9 Draco to assist. After alerting to illegal substances, Draco and his handler and other Troopers discovered four suspicious pallets hidden amongst other cargo in the trailer. Thanks to the efforts of CIU and K-9 Draco more than 1800 pounds of marijuana and over 4,000 illegal THC vape cartridges were taken off the streets and helped to make our communities safer.
