Marion County Combined Drug unit
The Sheriff's Office is the lead agency within the Marion County Combined Drug unit. The unit consist of agents from the Marion County Sheriff's Office, Marion Police Department and the Mullins Police Department.
While the proponents of legalizing narcotics would argue that drug use is a victimless crime, those who are sworn to serve and protect a community know from their daily experiences that drugs are unquestionably the catalyst for the lion’s share of criminal activity that occurs in their jurisdiction. Robbery, burglary, home invasion, carjacking, and even homicides more often than not have a connection with the use, sale, or purchase of illegal narcotics.
The Marion County Combined Drug unit remains committed to combating street level narcotics and vice-related crimes.
