Gilbert Tells Chamber Airport Not Drug Drop
Destin Sheriff Larry Gilbert told the Destin Chamber of Commerce board there is no proven drug drop at the local airport, citing radar surveillance from Eglin Air Force Base and cooperation with U S Customs and the DEA. He said most pot and cocaine traffic comes from Louisiana, controlled by private vehicles, and noted undercover work has been limited by manpower. He promised stricter underage drinking enforcement, longer response times improved with more deputies, and denied coordination problems among agencies, attributing traffic issues to road design and signals.
