Drug Sweep nets 50!

A multi-county sweep targeting illegal prescription drug buyers resulted in the arrest of 50 Southwest Florida residents last week.
In Operation Southwest Shopper, over a dozen law enforcement agencies joined forces to combat prescription drug abuse between Jan. 18 and 20.


Of the 50 arrested, eight were Lee and Collier county residents.

They include Craig Michael Buckner, 43 of Naples; Fernando Arturo Delarosa, 27 of Naples; Steven Galik, 57 of Fort Myers; Hugo Luis, 36 of Cape Coral; Randall Scott Morrell, 26 of Cape Coral; Trina Nelson Oshea aka Trina Smith, 45 of Lehigh Acres; Scott Maurice Raider, 32 of Fort Myers and Remi Lawrene Victor, 36 of Naples.

The charges filed include obtaining a controlled substance by fraud, sale and delivery and forging a doctor’s certificate.
The Lee County Coalition for a Drug-Free Southwest Florida will hold a meeting at 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Southwest Florida Addiction Services building at 3763 Evens Ave. to discuss prescription drug abuse prevention. The meeting is free and open to the public.
