With the increase in Crystal meth production in recent years and the dangers of meth labs starting fires in homes where innocent children are located at, the Lee County Sheriff Department placed more focus on Meth lab investigations during 2010, which led Agents to take down approximately 45 Meth Labs so far in Lee County this year.
* Of the cases presented to the Lee County Grand Jury they have about a 98% indictment/conviction rate
