According to Deputy Prosecutor Ryne Koucouthakis, who represented the State in this case, “people
who try to make a profit by spreading drugs throughout the community and fueling the addictions that
impact so many lives can’t get by with a slap on the wrist. The message from Prosecutor Arp has always
been that drug dealers belong in prison and this sentence exemplifies that position.”
