Laredo, Texas – On Monday June 20, 2011 Webb County Sheriff’s Deputies followed up on an ongoing investigation, in collaboration with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which led them to the 100 block of Beltran Loop. Upon arrival to the residence, Officers obtained consent to search and subsequently located 25 bundles inside a trash can in the back yard for a total of 57.6 kilos of Cocaine. Horacio Santos, 30 years of age, was arrested on site and was later transported to the Webb County Jail pending formal charges by a Federal Judge. The estimated street value of the cocaine is approximately $1.5 million.
“I pledged that our office would work with other agencies to get rid of dangerous drugs in our community. This is a significant amount of narcotics that will not reach the hands of the children of Webb County”. Stated Sheriff Martin Cuellar.
Why great job Sheriff. cuellar didn’t do shit. It was the officers that did everything. They should get the recognition not the Sheriff or his Commanders. And the DEA we’re the ones who tipped them of to go raid the house. Martin is not going to hit the people he protects.
