PSN is an evidence-based program proven to be effective at reducing violent crime. Through PSN, a broad spectrum of stakeholders work together to identify the most pressing violent crime problems in the community and develop comprehensive solutions to address them. As part of this strategy, PSN focuses enforcement efforts on the most violent offenders and partners with locally based prevention and reentry programs for lasting reductions in crime.

This case is being investigated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, the Ocmulgee Drug Task Force, the Baldwin County Sherriff’s Office, the Laurens County Sheriff’s Office, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, the Georgia Department of Corrections, the Milledgeville Community Supervision Office, the Wilkinson County Sheriff’s Office, the Jones County Sheriff’s Office, the Atlanta-Carolina’s HIDTA Office and the Gwinnett Metro Task Force.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Alex Kalim is prosecuting the case.
