St. Mary's Sheriff's Posses Chase Prostitutes, Drug Dealers into
Jail
In December of 2007 Vice Narcotics Detectives began making
numerous purchases of controlled dangerous substances through
various means. This investigation continued until the first week of
May 2008. Drug Traffickers were identified through the course of
investigations and citizen complaints. The objective of the three
(3) day pro active law enforcement efforts (Operation Spring
Cleaning) is to utilize multiple resources, manpower and tactics to
enforce violations that contribute to neighborhood decay. First and
foremost was the enforcement of controlled dangerous substance laws.
Members of the St. Mary's County Bureau of Criminal Investigations
Vice Narcotics Division have recently completed a five month
investigation that targeted several high profile drug traffickers.
Beginning May 8th and continuing for three consecutive days, the
operation consisted of arrest warrants being served, 13 Search and
Seizure Warrants were executed, a prostitution operation, undercover
street purchase operations, sex offender compliance, DWI saturation
patrol, quality of life crimes and other forms of enforcement.
Detectives from the St. Mary’s County Vice Narcotics Division, in
conjunction with the St. Mary’s County State’s Attorney’s Office,
were assisted by the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office Emergency
Services Team, Sheriff's Office Patrol Deputies, Sheriff’s Office
K-9 and other members of the Special Operations Division (SOD), Vice
Narcotics Support Team members, Detectives from BCI Criminal
Division, Sheriff’s Office Corrections Division, HIDTA Detectives (DEA),
Naval Criminal Investigative Services Investigators (NCIS), Officers
from Parole and Probation, Special Agents from the Federal Bureau of
Investigations (FBI) (Annapolis Field Office and the Innocent Images
Task Force) and members of the U.S. Marshals Capital Area Regional
Fugitive Task Force.
Of special significance was the assistance of the Maryland State
Police Drug Enforcement Bureau and the Maryland State Police La
Plata Barracks, according to Lt. Daniel Alioto, commander of the
joint Vice and Narcotics Investigation Team composed of the St.
Mary's Sheriff's Department and the Leonardtown Barrack of the
Maryland State Police.
"The MSP units were fantastic in their assistance and the individual
troopers from the various units involved are phenomenal in their
dedication and diligence," Lt. Alioto told ST. MARY'S TODAY.
"We would never be able to muster the manpower to put on such an
operation by ourselves and the recent slot machine investigations
and the crime involved with those infusions of illegal gambling had
already overtaxed our resources, so the ability to bring in these
resources to assist us was vital."
The operation began on May 8th 2008 with the US Marshals Capital
Area Regional Fugitive Task Force members and St. Mary’s County
Sheriff’s Office Patrol and Special Operations Divisions (SOD)
attempting to serve arrest warrants. The following is the results of
