By Francis Riggs


Drug investigation activities are conducted if suspected drug dealers are seen in a community based on citizen reports and other leads along with police routine work. The routine usually involves information and info gathering done by police officials, proper communication with other law task forces and unknown tips from local citizens. Most often, police units start such investigation to all suspected drug sellers who operate in the community. After taking necessary information about them, the officers begin the surveillance and watch the place days to weeks.

The assets will sit near the location where suspects are believed to be selling or dealing drugs associating with users and other dealers. The officers will then gather the quantity of the people who come and go. This is because, not all who arrive in that place are there to buy drugs, but they will also become one of the suspects. Portland historical drug investigation is not easy because there are times when targets would become aware with the operations and change how they approach.

In case this happens, the officers will let the situation cool first before they get another car and start the surveillance once again. Over time, police officers may gather such information and develop the introduction to suspected dealers in the location. According to the officers, drugs can be found everywhere.

Most of the officers who are joining the task force are required to commit to their duties for a particular time before returning to their official task. Typically, every officer is requested to return to their regular assignment. Actually, returning to their regular task is part of their rotation. This task is not only for everyone because everyone can be an officer, but it takes a special officer to pull it off.

In maintaining their cover, officers need to follow the sequence of events and act as if they will buy drugs and knocking on doors.
