Attorney Donald K. Tisdale
said the arrest represented
.charges against the big .
dealers as opposed to the
small-time dealers. Tisdale
gave credit to the participating
officers, the S.B.I, and the
. W.S.P.D. and said that these
were quality arrests. Apparently
meaning convictions
should be easy.
Three autos, including a
1974 Cadillac Eldarado were
confiscated. The Cadillac was
reported to be one dealer's
base of operations. A small
amount of cocaine, marijuana
and amphetamines were also .
confiscated in the raids. The
