The eradication of "crack" <br />cocaine is of such urgency and magnitude that it will challenge all <br />of our efforts and require us to work together, as never before, tak- <br />ing swift, effective action before the situation worsens. <br />- Enclosed you will find additional information regarding "crack" <br />cocaine and related problems sent to us by Commissioner Robert <br />Dempsey of Florida Department of Law Enforcement. <br />The Sheriff's Department does not currently have the resources to <br />handle this ever increasing problem of "crack" cocaine in Indian <br />River County. Currently, there are four (4) locations in Indian <br />River County that "crack" cocaine is sold openly and because of the. <br />lack of manpower, forbids us from spending the necessary time that it <br />takes to stop this type of activity. <br />19 <br />AUG 2 6 1985 <br />BOOK 6b PAGE <br />
