**Chief Sewell of the Pocomoke City Police department stated that if the citizens of these towns can't live in peace because drug dealers want to sell drugs, then the Pocomoke City Police Department and these other law enforcement agencies are going to continue to work together to make sure that the drug dealers don't live in peace as well.
Excellent statement. Pocomoke is becoming safer and safer everyday. congrats. to all the law enforcement men and women involved in capturing these criminals. Hopefully they will stay behind bars.
ReplyDeleteIs this the same Eric Bishop who was an employee of Pocomoke and who was arrested last year for selling drugs?
ReplyDeleteAnon 2:33- Yes, it is. Maybe this time he'll have long enough to sit and think about his past.
ReplyDeleteTo use a few words from a former statement made by the Chief about his department: the Pocomoke City Police Dept. works "diligently, effectively and aggressively every day to make the Pocomoke City Police Department one of the finest law enforcement agencies in the State of Maryland".
He's NOT joking. And if you haven't noticed a change you've been living under a rock!
