A US attorney and SC solicitor (federal and county prosecutors) have been appointed to head up a drug taskforce and are being recognized by the U.S. Department of Justice for their efforts in fighting the war on drugs says a recent The State article.
The State goes on to say, “U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles and Orangeburg Solicitor David Pascoe have joined Deputy Attorney General James Cole in WashingtonDCto discuss their Drug Endangered Child Community Response Team”.
This task force is working with long time existing anti-drug campaigns such as educators and ministers to combat South Carolina drug issues.
“Nettles says children who are born into households where the parents use, make or distribute illicit drugs are nearly 60 percent more likely to be arrested than children who don't live in homes with drugs” continues the State article.
Mr. Bill Nettles and Mr. David Pascoe have just recently held their first anti-drug meeting in Orangeburg.
