The Narcotics Unit investigates and combates the illegal possession, sale, manufacture, and distribution of controlled substances. Deputies in this unit work to disrupt drug trafficking organizations, reduce drug availability, and address the associated violence, money laundering, and, in some cases, vice-related crimes committed.
The Interstate Patrol Division is tasked with traffic enforcement on the interstate in north Iberville, which is a corridor for illegal drugs, weapons, money, explosives and other illegal materials. The deputies in this unit are assigned a K-9 dog capable of detection of various narcotics, tracking missing or wanted persons, and protecting deputies from physical threat. In addition, the deputies assigned to this unit are specially trained, equipped and educated for this hazardous line of patrol.
