Four suspected drug dealers are cooling their heels in jail after a raid by law enforcement in Ramona, across from a high school, no less. Early morning hours on Friday saw deputies and detectives from the Ramona Sheriff's Substation swooping down on the house on Hanson Lane, where it was busting long, the locals taken by surprise as the quiet of suburbia was shattered by the harsh discord of justice being served.
The search turned up an assortment of drugs—some 100 M30 fentanyl pills and just over three and a half grams of methamphetamine were found amidst the trappings of drug sales, a statement from the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department indicated. Paraphernalia scattered like breadcrumbs, a trail for deputies to follow to the heart of the operation. Those caught in the net include Larry Miller, William Clayton, Sierra Miller, and Bradley Bell, all facing drug sales and possession charges, as per an official statement from the Sheriff's Department.
Neighbors must have looked on, blinds barely open, as deputies carted out evidence and perps alike—their quiet street transformed into a crime scene with the bruised skies of dawn bearing witness. The Sheriff's detectives had pieced together information, leading them to believe that drug transactions had been going down at this residence. In a classic sting, the unsuspecting alleged perps were cuffed and bundled off to San Diego Central Jail to await their fate.
Further details sketch a picture of wayward paths intertwining—it turns out the residence was not just a suspected den for drug dealings but was also reportedly offering shelter to individuals on the lam, trying to skirt the grip of outstanding warrants. But the arm of the law is long and sometimes swift. In this case, it came down hard on Hanson Lane, grabbing hold and offering a whiff of justice for those who, in the proximity of youth and education at Ramona High School, might shape its potential poison into lessons, insights, and warnings.
