As the war against drugs continues, Sequatchie County deputies work every day to lessen the availability of dangerous drugs in the county.

The posted photos depict just a few examples of more than a dozen cases handled by deputies over the past couple of months, several with the assistance of K-9 Gator.

Even though they are not regularly seeing the larger amounts of drugs in one location as they experienced a couple of years ago, Sequatchie County deputies continue to battle the addiction epidemic, confiscating the relevant contraband along the way.

Sheriff Bill Phillips says his department will continue to work to remove illegal drugs from the streets while arresting those responsible with the appropriate charges.
