Prescription Drugs

Prescription drugs are a very iffy subject in today's world. They can be used to help very sick or injured persons or they can be abused and or stolen and sold for profit or to get high.

Pasco County Sheriff's Vice and Narcotics Unit detectives made the largest OxyContin drug bust in the county's history Jan. 24, 2001 with the arrest of a couple accused of selling the prescription drug. Deputies arrested Santa Nina Bennett, 55, and husband Alan Bennett, 53, and confiscated 1,010 pills with a street value of up to $20,000. The couple was booked into the Land O' Lakes jail with a bail of $150,000 each.
