The presentation occurred in Tempe, Arizona, at the annual ANOA conference.

    20160727_ycso1Deputy Winfrey’s supervisors commented that he is a valuable and productive member of the Partner Against Narcotics Trafficking (PANT) task force and YCSO K-9 Team.  His prior narcotics detective experience, coupled with his work ethic and motivation, has made him a highly valued and productive K-9 and PANT team member.  Deputy Winfrey is always willing to assist whenever needed and routinely shares knowledge and expertise with new and veteran deputies and PANT detectives.  Deputy Winfrey is active in teaching at the Northern Arizona Training Academy (NARTA) as well as doing educational presentations on drug trends and use in and around Yavapai County. 

    A significant event in Deputy Winfrey’s K9 tenure occurred while conducting a traffic stop in October of 2015 on I-40.  This contact resulted in the seizure of several pounds of Heroin and Cocaine as well as 14 pounds of pure powdered fentanyl.  This seizure was confirmed as one of the largest fentanyl seizure in the United States for the year 2015.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
