Throughout the week, the News-Banner will publish a special series of articles looking at the impact of drugs — particularly methamphetamine — on the county. The stories chronicle the impact on children, the environment, buildings and more.
“People talk about drugs being a victimless crime. Well, that’s crap,” Prosecutor Michael Lautzenheiser Sr. said. “If you took drugs and alcohol out of the equation, crime would plummet. We would have less than half of the crime that we have now.”
The state of Indiana has also published information online to learn more. For instance,
- Learn more about the signs, symptoms and behaviors of a meth addict.
- Warning signs that someone is using a property to manufacture meth.
- Report suspected meth activity.
- See the effects of meth on its users.
- Better identify a meth lab.
