MEMPHIS, Tenn. — In a Tennessee multi-law enforcement drug operation, 61 people were arrested, according to Tennessee District Attorney General Jody Pickens of the 26th Judicial District.
Pickens said March 30, grand juries in Chester, Henderson, and Madison Counties returned 141 separate indictments against approximately 75 people.
In Operation TriStar Hammer, on April 2, over 130 special agents, investigators, troopers, patrolmen, and deputies across West Tennessee served warrants. Pickens stated that 53 people have had grand jury warrants served on them.
