Search Warrants and Meth Lab Busts
We are a small department located in Gassville, Arkansas. just outside of Mountain Home, and have our fair share of individuals who either want to be a "supply runner" for ephedrine, or entrepreneurs in the profession of running meth labs.
Since being introduced to LeadsOnlabs, we have utilized he information gathered to write and execute approximately 9 search warrants this year in our town, which has led to seizing controlled substances and drug paraphernalia, and ultimately arrests with each warrant. We are looking forward to utilizing the other sites your company has provided.

Catching Cooks and Smurfers
"I just wanted to let y'all know that this service is invaluable to my meth investigations. LeadsOnlabs has led me in the right direction several times and, more times than not, an arrest or a confidential informant was developed based on intelligence I gathered using the system. I use the information gathered from LeadsOnlabs as a tool to just not get the smurfers buying the pills, but also getting the cooks recruiting the smurfers.
Thanks again for providing us Law Enforcement with an easy-to-use tool that I could not go without now!"

Meth Abusers Come in All Ages
"Our Drug Task Force prepared a search warrant using the frequency of pill purchases by using the LeadsOnlabs system. After executing the search warrant, we had a large group of people charged with manufacturing meth and several more felony charges. The people ranged in age from 30 to 65. Thanks for the help in the fight against meth."

The State of Arkansas deploys LeadsOnlabs MethMonitor
The state of Arkansas, under the direction of state Attorney General Dustin McDaniel deployed LeadsOnlabs MethMonitor in every pharmacy and every law enforcement agency statewide. He says LeadsOnlabs MethMonitor is helping re-shape the way his state fights the war against methamphetamine abuse.
"When the Meth Monitor was implemented in pharmacies throughout the state of Arkansas in May of 2008, the results were impressive. I firmly believe that this system has put a serious dent in the meth manufacturing business in Arkansas, and consequently, it has helped reduce other drug-related crime. I hope that other states battling the meth epidemic will utilize the LeadsOnlabs Meth Monitor and achieve the same great results as we have in Arkansas."
According to the National Association of Counties, and reported by the Meth Project Foundation, the majority of U.S. counties report that Meth is the most serious drug problem—more than cocaine and marijuana combined.
