10th Circuit Solicitor Chrissy Adams announced today convictions in two separate drug trafficking cases. “The Oconee County Sheriff’s Office and Narcotics Division did an excellent job in getting the evidence needed to secure these convictions,” said Solicitor Adams. “Our staff fought hard for tough sentences and thanks to their efforts these drug dealers will be off the streets.”
