This weekend we had the" Drug Take Back" event. At the conclusion of this we weighed the amount of drugs collected from all of our collection sites. We had 75 pounds of pills collected for disposal by the DEA.
That is 75 pounds of pills off the street. No chance of them ending up in the wrong hands or being sold.
We have two collection sites in the county. One is at the Joplin Courthouse, and the other is at our satellite office in Airport Village. They are available year around. In Carthage there is one located in the lobby of the Carthage Police Department.
If anyone has unused pills that need to be disposed of, please take them to one of these sites.
No inhalers or needles please.
