The leader of a south Georgia drug task force says it will disband by the end of this year due to a lack of funding .
South Georgia Drug Task Force Cmdr. Bahan Rich tells the Valdosta Daily Times that the unit will end on or by Dec. 31. Rich says the unit's federal funding was cut by 55 percent. He
said the unit isn't dropping any of its current cases, and will have
time to complete its investigations before Dec. 31 and forward
information to prosecutors.
The task force was composed of officers from the Cook County Sheriff's Office, Adel Police Department, Lenox
Police Department, Berrien County Sheriff's Department, Echols County
Sheriff's Office, Lanier County Sheriff's Office, Clinch County
Sheriff's Office, Homerville Police Department and several other
regional agencies.
