Greenup County Sheriff, Keith Cooper, and his team of deputies are hoping their most recent drug bust will slow down local drug activity.

"As an agency, I feel we're making a great impact on it because this is our top priority, the drug problem," Cooper said.

After making an undercover deal, Cooper arrested 22 year old Erica Blair and 42 year old Tessa Potts for trafficking close to 200 Oxycodone pills and about 60 Xanax pills. Potts' two year old grandson was also in the car. The pills equal over $5,000 in street value.

"Naturally they'll both be charged with wanton endangerment in the first degree as a result of this with the child being present."

Along with the drugs, the Sheriff's Department also confiscated plane tickets, where they say the suspects have been traveling to Florida to get their drugs.

"We have doctors in Florida that are just writing prescriptions by the hundreds and we have hundreds of people that are making the trip every month," Cooper said.

Making a thousand mile trip to feed an addiction.

"The Oxycodone is such an addictive substance that they have to have it," Cooper said.

Blair and Potts are being held in the Greenup County Detention Center where they're awaiting to be arraigned on wanton endangerment and drug trafficking charges. The two year old boy has been picked up by relatives.
