Polk County Sheriff
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd has gone viral for his latest arrest. On Friday, during a press conference, Grady came out wearing a big gold necklace that belonged to alleged drug dealer Nathaniel “Nate” Donald, who was accused of operating a drug ring that resulted in the overdose death of one elderly woman.
“She was walking out of her house to church when she collapsed, so she died so that Nate could have this drip,” Judd said. “Did you hear what I said? He’s buying this drip from selling drugs to people on the streets, one of which died.”
“I got their drip. I got their money. We got their guns. We got their dope.”
Judd wanted to make the point that he believes that even low-level drug dealers are dangerous to society.
“Where you see $50,000 in drip, where you see that ‘not-so-dangerous’ drug of cannabis, you see guns and you see first-degree murder from overdose. I am over it,” he said.
“I am over it when people tell you that drugs are low-level and non-violent,”
