    Yavapai County Attorney's OfficePrescott AZ (April 25, 2020) – A Rimrock man, arrested on April 13 in Cottonwood by PANT (Partners Against Narcotics Trafficking) for possessing a large number of fentanyl pills with intent to sell, has been sentenced to 3 years prison. On Tuesday, April 21, 2020, Dylan Ray Mills pled guilty to the crimes of attempted Possession of Narcotic Drugs (Fentanyl) for Sale, a class three felony, and 3 counts of Personal Possession of Drug Paraphernalia (methamphetamine related), all class six felonies. Following his guilty plea, the Honorable Tina R. Ainley of the Yavapai County Superior Court immediately sentenced Mills to three years in prison.

    Prior to the arrest of Mills, PANT detectives had developed information that Mills was involved in the sales of fentanyl and was staying at a motel on south Main Street in Cottonwood. Around 10 PM on April 13, detectives spotted Mills leave the motel with a can of Arizona ice tea in his hand. When a detective approached Mills, he quickly dropped the can and ran. Detectives caught up to him and Mills resisted arrest. After subduing Mills, detectives discovered 271 fentanyl pills in a “hide-a-can” safe in the iced tea can and ½ gram of methamphetamine. The street value of the fentanyl is estimated to be approximately $7,000.00.

    According to Dwight D’Evelyn of the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office, “PANT detectives were very pleased to get this poison off our streets.”

    Sheila Polk, Yavapai County Attorney, said, “I am grateful to PANT for their good work. Illicit fentanyl is the deadliest drug we see on our streets. What is especially frightening is that traffickers are pressing this lethal substance into mimic prescription pills. One pill is enough to kill. The best way to send the message to fentanyl dealers to stay out of communities is to send them to prison.”

    D’Evelyn reminds the public that Yavapai Silent Witness offers a $1000 reward for direct tips that lead to the arrest of a confirmed fentanyl dealer.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
