Traffic stop leads to arrest after
52 pounds of pot discovered
By Heidi Bunch
MCIN Staff
On Jan. 14, a member of the Mineral
County Sheriff's Office team made a
traffic stop on a black Chrysler sedan for
a basic speed violation.
The driver, Thomas Patton, was found
to have an outstanding warrant for fel-
ony embezzlement out ofk County,
Nevl per a press release from Sheriff
Randy Adams.
The release goes on to state, "Upon
searching the vehicle incident to arrest,
a large amount of marijuana was discov-
ered."
.Almost 52-pounds of marijuana was
located in 12 containers along with sev-
eral pills which were identified as am-
phetamine tablets.
Patton was charged for the basic viola-
tions: basic speed, drive on a suspended
driver's license, possession of marijuana
14 after a large amount of marijuana
was found during a traffic stop.
I hope this finds you all well.
The Mineral County Sheriff's Office
staff has been hard at work over the
past two years so we thought we would
give everybody a report of what we
have been doing. Let me start by giving
you a brief recap of what we informed
you of back in 2o15.
In 2o15 we: started evidence vault
management; traded old firearms for
new shotguns and tactical sights; gen-
era] cleanup of office and property
(eight - 40 foot roll-off dumpsters;
became compliant with the State of
Nevada in regards to computers; or-
ganization of office (no more car parts
and equipment in area for personnel);
fees to inmates for certain doctor visits
and prescriptions; the saUyport (caged
area where prisoners are brought in to
the jail) is now concrete making it safer
both prisoners and staff (grant); we
continue to clean out our vault as the
law allows and when possible we trade
for new equipment, We also did an-
other evidence burn to keep our vault
in good working order.
We are sure there are likely a few
items we have missed, but this list is a
pretty accurate reflection of the proj-
ects we have completed. The items
listed above amounted to over $375,000
in training and equipment at no addi-
tionalcost to our taxpayers.
With that being said we want to en-
sure you that the men and women of
the sheriff's office have not neglected
removal of cars in impound; purchase their primary duties while we have
of additional patrol vehicle and money
for additional unit in future- no cost to
taxpayers; updated handheld radios
with no cost to taxpayers; assisted dep-
uties with getting new ballistic vests
(grant); Brazos Electronic traffic man-
agement system IE: electronic traffic ci-
• tation devices (grant); new preliminary
breath testers (grant); approximately
$80,000 in training' and equipment at
no cost to the taxpayers; security wall
and pass-through window in sheriff's
office lobby; started the trustee work
program utilizing inmates to assist
with work projects around the county
freeing up the paid county employees
to better serve the community's needs
and last but not least, we moved the
Mineral County Sheriff's Office Com-
munications Center.
Since 2o15 we have not slowed down
and have been working on the follow-
ing. we completed the purchase, in-
stallation and training for the Sp'fllman
Computer Aided Dispatch, Booking
and Report writing system (this is one
of the most advanced systems avail-
able and is the same system utilized by
the State of Nevada. The Walker River
Tribal Police (WRTP) has also taken
steps to integrate with the Spillman
system); the WRTP has-also assisted
the sheriff's office with endeavors
within the dispatch division, which we
greatly appreciate and feel it has helped
us develop a strong working relation-
- Photo courtesy of MCS0 ship that benefits all citizens of Mineral
Sheriff'sdeputies made an arrest Jan. County; we were successful in obtain-
ing a grant for the new fire alarm system
for the county government complex;
successfully applied for 'two separate
grants from the OHV division of DMV
for the purchase of a UTV as well as a
trailer capable of hauling the UTV; have
implemented a school resource deputy
program wherein the assigned deputy
spends a majority of his time in and
around our schools (first time in Min-
erai County history); several doors in
the sheriff's office have been equipped
with electronic security locks. (No cost
to our taxpayers); utilized Narcotic Sei-
zure Funds to purchase another Nar-
cotics Detection K-9 (Pjak, pronounced
Pike); With some very creative budget-
ing, grant applications and negotiating
we have been able to purchase three
brand new patrol cars and one "new
to us" patrol truck with no additional
costs to our tax payers; the sheriff's
office recently implemented a body
camera program where all deputies are
equipped with body cameras (grant);
we sent a deputy to school for comput-
erized voice stress analysis and now
we can complete'our own background
checks for hiring; fortunate enough to
get picked by the Secret Service to send
a person to training for forensic analy-
been tackling these additional proj-
ects. We took some time to compile
some statistics in areas we know the
public is concerned about. We com-
pared numbers from Mineral County
Sheriff's Office records in 2o14 versus
9`o16. Here is what we learned: traffic
enforcement (tickets) - 14o% increase;
DUI cases - lO8% increase; tmlawful
use of a controlled substance - 43% in-
crease; possession of a controlled sub-
stance - 224% increase; possession for
sale of a controlled substance - 200%
increase and trafficking of a controlled
substance - 800% increase.
We know some of those numbers
look high but we double checked them
and they are accurate. The sales and
the trafficking are all separate cases.
Even though all trafficking cases would
have sales associated with them we
only counted sales cases that were not
part of a trafficking case. These two ar-
eas are our primary drug concern here
at Mineral County Sheriff's Office. We
want to be clear that we will not tolerate
anybody attempting to sale narcotics to
the good people of Mineral County or
anyone else, for that matter.
We wanted the factual numbers in
reference to our jail population from
2o14 versus 9`o16 to be reflected but it is
proving difficult to obtain. Just relying
on memory we are certain that there is
approximately a too percent increase
in our average daily population. We
will inform you when we have the ac-
tual numbers calculated.
We are happy with the direction the
department is going but know we still
need improvement in some areas and
we are constantly learning. The goal is
to always be moving forward and we
feel we are doing that. We are always
training and trying to think outside the
box to improve this sheriff's office to
better serve you.
We are currently trying to get on the
State of Nevada 800 MHz digital radio
system. This will greatly enhance our
public and officer safety. We are in the
middle of the grant process with the
USDA where we are trying to get fund-
hag for additional patrol vehicles. We
currently have the newest fleet that any
of us can remember but we still need a
few more new vehicles to have the en-
tire fleet upgraded. We Will be mailing
out our request for assistance to local
businesses for funding our anonymous
tips account. Another thing we will
be looking at in regards to anonymous
tips is an ' nonymous Tip" cellular •
phone and computer app where our
public can text tips anonymously to the
sherifffs office.
We are also speaking with surround-
ing law enforcement agencies about
entering an agreement for a regional
communities here in Northern Nevada.
After looking at this article I see it is
a lot of information and that tells me I
need to keep you informed more often.
For that I apologize. I get wrapped up
in everything we have going but that is
no excuse, I will do better.
As always if you ever have any ques-
tions please feel free to call or come by
the sheriffs office. We are rarely able to
sit at our desks for long but if we can't
be located in or around the sheriff's of-
rice please leave a message and we will
get back to you.
SINCERELY
RANDY ADAMS, SHERIFF
