Based on the story, it appears that a felon, Willoughby Farr, claimed that he could get drugs from deputies while incarcerated. The story goes on to say that Farr worked as an informant for months, wore a recording wire and received cocaine in his jail cell. The case supposedly fell apart when Farr was caught in some lies. The sheriff obviously should know who was recorded and what they said. And more important, who gave this inmate cocaine? I would hope that the sheriff would continue his investigation and find out who was supplying drugs to inmates. Obviously, some law-enforcement people at the jail were involved. Let's get rid of the few rotten apples that, unfortunately, are in law enforcement. Matthew Bressler, Jupiter - --- MAP posted-by: Keith Brilhart
