(Press Release) Agents with the Inyo Narcotics Enforcement Team (INET) concluded a drug investigation in the Bishop area into the sales of methamphetamine. The investigation resulted in one arrest and the seizure of a large amount of drugs.
On the evening of Friday, 04/04/2014, INET Agents along with the assistance of the Inyo County Sheriff’s Department, conducted a search at a residence on Tu Su Lane. The search was part of an investigation into Dustin Anthony Smith (age 26), a resident of Bishop, for the sale and possession for sale of methamphetamine. At the residence, INET Agents seized approximately one pound of methamphetamine which resulted in the arrest of Smith.
Through investigation, INET Agents believe Smith was a mid-level dealer who received large amounts of methamphetamine (of a pound or more per shipment) from a wholesale–level supplier. In turn, Smith would then supply smaller quantities of methamphetamine to street-level dealers in Inyo and Mono Counties for them to sell.
INET Agents began the investigation into Smith when they received information he was involved in criminal drug activity. Smith was booked at the Inyo County Jail for Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Possession of a Controlled Substance, Possession of a Controlled Substance for Sales, and Felony Child Endangerment.

I guess I have a hard time with this notion that somehow law enforcement and the courts are invested in continuing drug abuse because it keeps them employed. I know there is a lot of dishonesty in government but that claim is beyond what any reasonable person can stomach. I… Read more »

Dear A/P, Just one point: Child Abuse knows no economic boundaries – poverty, wealth, lavish lifestyles to child trafficking. Poverty is not the root of child abuse; human greed and lack of social conscience is.
Yes correct, in a general perspective “poverty” is a lead indicator of child abuse, I wasn’t limiting it to the poor, I was just stating another downfall of our current economic realities, and the perpetuation of..
Here’s is a interesting interview, It shows how in history, when people side with the “Bad crowds” within the cultural norms at the time, we gain and have gained (as humans) a lot of freedoms today we take for granted…
