ELDORADO—Even with Freeman Shannon Todd Deuel leading them, there are still some competent cops in the city of Eldorado around to do their jobs, and yesterday’s meth bust was an example of that.
And while we haven’t found out exactly WHICH Eldorado officers were present, they were instrumental, along with county deputies, with taking down an alleged meth lab in town yesterday (Monday 12.19.11) and sending four people to the saline County Detention Center on various charges.
Arrested at 2417 Locust Street were: Terry Lee Dobyns, 36, 500 Hall Loop Road, Eldorado, on charges of aggravated methamphetamine manufacture, possession of meth manufacturing materials and aggravated meth-related child endangerment;
Matthew Michael Shaffer, 25, 2417 Locust Street, Eldorado, on charges of aggravated methamphetamine manufacture, possession of meth manufacturing materials and aggravated meth-related child endangerment;
Jerri Lynn Pennington, 47, 2417 Locust Street, Eldorado, on a charge of meth-related child endangerment; and
Tiffany June Schnake, 22, 2417 Locust Street, Eldorado, on a charge of meth-related child endangerment.
We’ve been advised that children present in the residence were taken into protective custody, but we’re unsure of the status of that as of this morning.
Good work on the part of officers involved….especially for the lack of STD in the mix.
