(Source: WAFF Staff)(Source: WAFF Staff)LAWRENCE COUNTY, AL (WAFF) -Lawrence County Drug Task Force Agents are looking for 16 suspects after arresting 13 during a concentrated effort Wednesday. All of the suspects were recently indicted by a grand jury. Many were indicted for drug charges ranging from possession to distribution and manufacturing methamphetamine.Officers from every police department in the county and Lawrence County Sheriff deputies aided the drug task force agents as they began a county-wide search for 29 suspects.By 10 a.m., the roundup was winding down. Sheriff Gene Mitchell said as the day moves on, suspects do, too. Once the arrests begin, word quicklygets around."If everybody is asleep, nobody's calling each other," Mitchell said. "So, after the first few when you arrest 6 or 8 or 10, by that time the phone calls start."He added that the arrests help the community, and can help some of those in custody. The sheriff said a dealer behind bars means a disrupted drug supply line, and an addict off the streets gets the chance to change."Once we get them in the jail, at least they've got the shot at getting in rehab, getting some help on it," Mitchell said. "Once they get on the meth and stuff, they're not coming off of it. They only way they're coming off of it is when they hit bottom." The following are the 16 suspects still at large after Wednesday's county-wide roundup. Anyone with information that can help investigators is asked to call the Lawrence County Drug Task Force at 256-974-2534.Christopher Cagle, 43-years-old, Double SpringsKari Dellaporta, 42, MoultonAmanda Ruth Grace, 33, Double SpringsMany Marie Martin, 34,TrinityNickolaus David Scroggins, 28, MoultonSusan Renea Newton, 45, HaleyvilleCarmen Thompson,31, MoultonKatie I.
