The Warren County Drug Task Force is a multi-jurisdictional unit specializing in the investigation of drug trafficking, prescription drug diversion, money laundering and other drug related crimes. Our area of operation is all of Warren County and the City of Wilmington in Clinton County.

The Warren County Drug Task Force is an initiative of the Ohio High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA), based in Cleveland, Ohio. As a result of the HIDTA program, our team includes detectives, special agents, troopers and other staff from multiple local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. This allows us to combine resources and work together to target larger criminal organizations, some stretching to our southern-most borders of the United States and beyond. This collaboration of resources results in a better coordinated effort to address all levels of drug trafficking and abuse, with a concentrated effort toward mid to upper-level offenders.

The Warren County Drug Task Force team provides specialized drug enforcement services using a variety of techniques and tactics to target those involved in drug trafficking activities in our community. Also serving our jurisdiction is a full-time detective specializing in the investigation of prescription drug diversion crimes, as well as a highway interdiction team from the Ohio State Highway Patrol. Our highway interdiction team also provides consistent support to task force operations, as plain clothes investigations oftentimes move rapidly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction throughout the state.

Enforcement and Investigative Operations are supported by a Criminal Intelligence Analyst provided by the Ohio National Guard Counter Drug Unit, and an Investigative Assistant from the Warren County Sheriff’s Office. These support personnel provide ongoing assistance to investigators and are valued members of our unit. We recognize that to be truly successful, the support and assistance of the public is essential. To help accomplish this goal, the Warren County Drug Task Force Drug Tip line is listed on this site. All calls and information will be kept in the strictest of confidence. Additionally, you may also provide confidential information by completing our Drug Tip Form.
