2024-09-03

Written with artificial intelligence assistance.

According to the Pontotoc County Sheriff's Department, on Friday, August 30, 2024, a coordinated effort by the Special Victims Unit of the Criminal Investigation Division (CID), Patrol Deputies, and the North Pontotoc School Resource Officer led to the removal of nine children from a residence on Graham Road in Pontotoc County.

The action followed positive methamphetamine test results for the children’s parents, revealed during a court-ordered drug screening. This operation was part of an ongoing CID investigation, which began two weeks ago after receiving a report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

CID Commander extended gratitude to the concerned citizens of Pontotoc County who reported their suspicions regarding the safety and potential exploitation of the children to the National Center. The investigation into the case remains active.
