The Pemiscot County
Sheriffs Department is working to help educate the citizens of
bootheel area on the dangers of methamphetamine ("meth"). The Chemical
Control Act was passed on July 1, 1999, initiating an education and
notification program and a chemical cleanup program associated with meth
labs.
Meth is produced in
illegal clandestine drug laboratories that are commonly found in motels;
rural areas away from the general public; and residential areas, including
houses, apartments, and garages. Mobile labs have also been found in
vehicles and discarded along roadsides or parking lots.
These sites can be deadly, but with
your help, we believe that we can make a difference, and make our community
a safer place to live and raise our children.
Make it a personal duty to educate
yourself about methamphetamines and clandestine labs, and help remove them
from our streets.
Take our test and see if you should
refresh yourself about meth.
