For three years, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office produced its own crack cocaine, so it could sell it to people that deputies would then arrest for buying crack cocaine.

    Wait, these people have been in jail for 30 years? For buying drugs.

    Remind me how much the sheriff got for manufacturing and dealing

      It sounds like they served the time a long time ago. However, having a criminal record can still matter, so they’re attempting to go back and take them off the books for the people affected.
