Methamphetamine continues to grow in manufacturing, distribution and use. As a result, it permeates many aspects of criminal investigation and prosecution and the vast majority of case loads are in some way related to Meth. In our communities as well as daily newscasts, the widespread effect of this illegal and often violent activity is evident. This Meth Summit is designed for the law enforcement officers in Alabama dealing with the wide spread effects of Methamphetamine.

Investigating and prosecuting drug cases has been made more challenging with the increased complexity and sophistication of illegal drug operations. Come hear form our experienced faculty to learn how to more effectively and efficiently investigate narcotics cases and deal with current defense challenges. Join law enforcement officers from around the state as we discuss cutting edge strategies, legal issues and the investigative techniques you will need to add to our arsenal of weapons in the on-going war against Meth.

Whether it’s simple possession or trafficking; whether it’s a shake and bake or a full blown lab; whether it’s a small time dealer or a Mexican cartel, this Meth Summit will provide you with cutting edge investigative techniques as well as the latest trends being seen on the front lines.

This conference will address many of the most current issues of Meth investigation, including topics such as:
