He is blowing money and locking people up over drug users' own choices. I don't think drugs should be legal. But I don't think we should make so much trouble over people's own choices. The people who choose to use drugs and pay for them need to pay a relatively larger price.
this sheriff is full of it ,go after the real drug dealers that bringing drugs to this country,but you won’t put up them white guys pictures pushing drugs ,i see threw your bull shat!
@@SeeCopsLie one problem at times it involves children. They can choose what they want. But still there needs to be a price paid for dealing and smuggling.
Except for his absolute refusal to allow his deputies to use body cameras and the shear numbers of his deputies that have been arrested and jailed for crimes. Perhaps the dirtiest Sheriff in America today.
There could be, if law enforcement would not cower to the lawless, telling them to respect their rights. The criminals have far too much Lea way. Law enforcement getting tough!🇺🇸🇺🇸
dude these guys are wild out there. seriously though, There are easily 50+ videos of this guy in this county talking about crime that makes movies a dream.
It seems that every time I see this Polk county sheriff, he is passionate, honest, and transparent with all the crimes he must deal with as per his solemnly sworn duty to uphold law and order.
Maybe someday this honest, "transparent" super L.E.O. will put some body worn cameras on his deputies. Or even dashcams in their cars. Then we'd have more to go on when people get killed by them than just Grady's storyline.
@@jerrybutler605 it is evident you haven't been paying attention. What planet has your head on? Where were you during all the other times this officer was reporting on crime and who was caught? Was you head on the planet anus?
We like your prosecutor Sheriff Grady Judd... And we also like his application in the court system. Kudos on his outstanding support for our Florida Police departments...Stay Safe Gentlemen and Ladies of Polk County...
If all Law Enforcement Officers were ANYTHING like Sheriff Judd people would LOVE them ALL; unfortunately Sir YOU are the EXCEPTION. May the Lord My God Bless You and keep His Wings Over You. Thank You for Your Service!
All I can say is thank you. I have just recently lost a grandson to FENTANYL. This is disaster and the border is wide open. If people like you didn’t care about us we have no one to look to for help. The Federal Government has certainly turned their back on us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I'm sorry for your loss. I don't think this Administration could get any worse. They turned their back because Joe Biden knows that's the only way Democrats can win this time. He has tried to accumulate the Hispanic votes, the woman votes, transgender and and homosexuals, and as bad as I hate to say this he's trying to secure the black vote by telling them if you don't vote for me"then " you ain't black". That's got to be one of the worst racist comments ever made by a President.
The border, is not "wide open." Fentanyl busts are way up right now. Also, Mexico has made a deal with President Biden, that Mexico is paying for brand new technology that we need so badly for border patrol. It's going to help a lot. Not sure why you think the border is wide open? This story here is a big deal. It was a set up. Understand?
I grew up in Polk County, I got to know the Sheriff in my rebellious teenage years! Im 53 now and happy to see him still on the job! What an outstanding asset to Polk County!
So do you blame others for making bad stuff available or do you own up to your choices? Just curious as everyone blames mexico and illegals but the user is just an innocent victim….
Sheriff Judd I live in VA and I admire you and your professionalism. You keep the people of Polk County well informed and I’m so happy for them all. However, many of us do not have this in our state, town, or county. Many of our elected officials are more concerned with hiding the crimes or are involved in white collar crimes themselves. You sir are an exemplary leader and I pray that other leaders at the the state, town, or county levels take heed of the example that you have set, because sir you set the bar HIGH. Again thank you for leading the way to what every elected official should strive to be.
Thank you for your compassion. The problem with deadly drugs has been around through many presidents. I don't think any of them really cared enough to do anything. Ultimately, my son was an addict and he chose for himself. God knows if I could have saved him I would have. We must all fight this plague. Thanks again for your sympathy.
@@christinebehner5928 your son didn’t deserve to die and the Former President did everything in his power to kill these dealers and manufacturers. I won’t get political out of respect but this could have been avoided if we did what needed to be done to stop it. I a, sure you tried every and I can’t imagine how many nights you waited up for him to come home and the hell you went through, make no mistake this is a battle of good vs evil and our kids are now being killed with candy colored fentanyl, looks like Publix candy to kill our little children, it’s no longer addicts dying from this it’s innocent little kids.
@@witortreat6657 This sheriff is doing his job, he doesn't care about the limelight, that's demon rats and Rino's that love limelight along with all the criminals in our fake news media.
This sheriff is amazing. The way he talks just makes me laugh. He makes fun of these assholes. He could be a comedian. I’d be happy to have this man as a sheriff. They just don’t make em like this anymore. Unfortunately.
Years ago when I was still working we had a slogan TEAM T: together E: everyone achieves M: more!!! Great job everyone who was involved! Sheriff Grady Judd is so awesome I love watching him. GOD Bless you ✝️✝️ all👍😊
K they are backed by their legislators unlike in NYork California and those other states who the politicians have gone into business with the criminals
@@1stsharkb8 Oh,so i guess that Donald has done nothing wrong here? Now i understand your point of view and also your ideals. I just want to see people who break the law/rules to be punished regardless of who they are. Florida is a very conservative state with very liberal gun laws so there are large numbers of murders/killings there. You really don't need much of a reason to shoot someone down there other than having your personal space invaded. I do love the way this sheriff handles business.
@@garylivingston9052 I live in Texas so I am allowed to protect myself as well. It's awesome!! I don't know if Donald has done anything wrong. So far they haven't proven anything they have accused him of. I think his crime is not being part of the "politician's " club. I'm a Libertarian so I believe in very small government and the constitution. Those are my views and ideals. I don't need the government to take care of me beyond having a strong military, law enforcement, and decent roadways. I can take care of myself other than that.
What an OUTSTANDING SHERIFF! Thank you for being a fine example of leadership and empathy for humanity. Your team are our heroes and stellar examples of what needs to be exemplified NATION WIDE. Thank you!
It's interesting that women seemed to be the most "bootlickers". Must be that legacy of "slave patrols" protecting white women from those "evil" black slaves.
@@melissabenson6749 narcissists/sociopaths/psychopaths are often charming, good looking, well dressed and well spoken, which is why ignorant people look up to them and give them consent to be the rulers.
do you really think he stopped anything? do you think it stops flowing because of one mediocre bust... do you think corrupt cops stop taking drug dealer money to protect supply and territory... something tells me you don't think at all.
@@paladro So, Mr. thinker, what are you proposing? That nothing be done at all? I suggest that you try thinking again. True, Rome was not built in a day, but it WAS built over time! I'm really interested in what you think should have been done in this case.
Indeed, there needs to be a deep dive into baggage handles, airline employees, and some TSA "inspection agents". There must be shenanigans happening at all levels ( including the highest level). Bravo to the massive law enforcement teams who were willing to take this on to save lives.
TSA fails to detect 95% of his own weapons and he still complements TSA when people complain about it? Seems like a bigger issue than rogue TSA agents.
It’s all for show. The sheriff is a politician. The fact is the cartel will find another way to get their drugs into his county if they haven’t already
@@markm4623 I agree. But at least he's standing up to them .. Unlike the LAPD ..and NYPD.. They've been their closest allies from the beginning . He's doing as much as a single man can . exposing . And I respect that.
@@kurtcocaine4712 Dude .. no one can stop the impact... big or small .. This guy puts his face out there.. whether its anti drug enforcement , convicting child predators ... this is what true masculinity looks like
I have nothing but love, admiration, and the utmost respect for this man, He is a credit to his uniform, and a credit to humanity. Thank you so much for your tireless dedication to your state and community.
@@elizabethbeighley7372 I thought you were agreeing with a question, then counted Replys. Whatever Jackie said has been deleted/hidden by utube.🤦♀️ Happens way too often on about all channels. Annoying.
you think he stopped the threat? sorry, the flow will continue because of capitalism, even his paycheck and the state funds for the taskforce depend on capitalism. so he only interrupted a minor supply chain. i hear about fetanyl busts often, but the supply persists, so are they actually doing anything?
@@silkeeberle8484 I don't care for anyone doing bad things to themselves and then expecting pity from others. Hell no. No room for self-destructive 'victims' at this pity party.
Hats off to Sheriff Grady Judd for an outstanding job with combined effort of other agencies for putting a halt to a massive amount drug flow, sale and use in our country ! It's departments like yours that stand up and say; enough is enough and working together as a team, that make me proud of Americas front line of defense against these crimes. All real Americans and Patriots salute you and all of your team ! WELL DONE ! A+++++++++
@@shanedangers Goofy fool you, one moment you speak politics, next comment you're saying let's leave politics out of it ?? From Fl. are you ?

@John Wolf if it's criminalized how is it that oxycontin or oxycodone or other such "pain meds" are being prescribed by medical practitioners all over the country and paid for by health insurance?
Ninja the problem is that the sheriff's in Florida are backed by their legislators and Governor in those other woke states like N York California and those democratic states the police officers and sheriff's are not backed these wicked politicians allow the criminals to do as they please while they lie and live in their rich gated communities with their security and the stupid people keep voting them into office when they had the chance to get rid of Gleason what they did they refuse so I don't feel sorry for a lot of Americans who believe that they are snitching when they have the opportunity to tell the cops
@@cynthiabeck1302 no Cynthia, the point is not that he did his job on THIS day, the point is the man’s a steaming jackass… The fact that somebody got busted for committing crimes does not change that. You’re looking at one aspect of a press conference.Grady Judd is so much more than that, or should I say so much less.This is just one more big drug bust, and it don’t change shit. If you think there’s gonna be any shortage of crank you must be smoking it yourself. Grady Judd is one camera sucking sumbitch, so don’t look at one press conference, look at them all.The man is a typical Florida sheriff. And that’s no compliment. When I can afford to put the state in my rearview mirror you won’t be able to pry the smile off my face with a 6 foot Johnson bar. This clown show crap is exactly what Grady Judd is best at.When it comes to blowing his own horn this assholes A regular Steve Bannon. And by horn I mean his penis, in case you’re too Republican to get the joke.
I wish you were the sheriff where you live too… Maybe then you’d realize how stupid that statement was. Come on down to Polk County and find out. Putting on the big show is Gradys stock in trade. That doesn’t mean PT Barnum would make a great fucking sheriff. This piece of shit proudly stands with the fascists wanting to destroy this country.Personally I believe he should copulate himself and the horse he rode in on.
Sheriff Grady Attorney General 2024 Arrest the swamp. In my dreams this guy would fire all the Soros District Attorney's that are destroying this country with Communism.
Leadership at it's finest. Don't miss it. Man should've been a Marine. I take it Sheriff that you are training others to uphold the values you have exemplified. Make no mistake. Many eyes are on you,some of them good and not so good. A great job upholding great values every law enforcement department should strive for. Not just the Sheriff,but his men. The team work stands out. A stellar example for those that want to lead. For those that don't respect their oath to country or department, then find something else to do. This country has has enough of compromisers and imposters. Stand down and let the real men lead. Makes a person want to visit Florida again.
Yes this man is doing good work but what does that have to do with being a Marine. There are Marines that have broken the law. This sheriff lives by the law than those marching around carrying weapons. Wish we could clone this man.
Just yesterday morning my 29 year old niece died, she overdosed and my sister woke up in the morning and found her dead. This is complete and utter devastation to families across this nation. Let's please get our priorities striate. Community has got to go before money! The gentleman is right, our communities are tied to one another so we can all cherish the diversities among us as well as realize we have similarities. Love one another
I'm sorry you lost a family member, but does your "love one another" also apply to the idiot potato that has our border wide open, letting tons upon tons of fentynal in to America and killing our youth ??
I'm so sorry for the loss of your niece and the destruction and chaos brought to your loved ones. If you don't yet have a relationship with God through His offer of salvation to you offered by Jesus Christ I pray for you to get to KNOW Him personally so you can become His child and EXPERIENCE HIS PEACE & LOVE which passes ALL natural understanding. He loves you beyond measure and wants to help you get through your trauma and grief. Jesus Christ literally went to hell in your place & was raised from the dead to open The Way for people to get into God's Family IF they CHOOSE to acknowledge Him as their Lord - Savior. Just ASK Him to be your Lord and confess that He is Lord and He said you SHALL be SAVED. PLEASE READ JOHN 3:1-21 ROMANS 10:8-10 EPHESIANS 2:8-9 💖
Please this guy is known for pumping up himself for his own political career here in Florida, he will do anything to get himself on camera, you can find him supporting any political discussion that takes away a citizen's rights including the right to vote.
My son almost died from fentanyl and I'm blessed to still have him.. My heart goes out to all those kids who have passed. Thank you Florida for taking on this against all odds. I love Florida!!! Maybe others can learn. From michigan
We gotta get rid of biden. He seems to be working with these Chinese and cartels to bring these drugs in. You can o.d. on fentenyal by just touching something with fentenyal on it
@@sheilafuller3899 Probably volume of baggage/resources, or corruption along the chain somewhere? I know in Ireland the IAA got weapons and bomb parts through airport security as a test due to stretched security resources.
As long as there exists no shortage of depraved idiots out there waiting to consume this shit , there will be those willing to serve their sick tastes.
Thank you - there are still so many good people in this nation, such as the law enforcement who risked their lives working this case and others....We truly appreciate you. God Bless.
You obviously have no clue how tyrannical that administration is they ruin people's lives I've seen it yes I agree with the meth problem in Polk County but when you constantly ruin kids lives by sending their parents to the maximum sentence and then always posting there busts? kinda narcissistic huh? Why is there always a sex trafficking ring in Polk County? He's doing it to move up politics period I see though his bullshit
Lawful men not legal. Great Men in Polk County. Legal means doing away with law. Yea people have no idea that doing away with the Law (GoDs Word) is evil. Kinda like they did in Religion, social, economics etc.
I’m a Canadian and I absolutely love this man I wish he was in charge of law enforcement in my province! People of Polk county consider your selves lucky!
This is a great example of what state, county and local authorities should strive for. BIG TIME 👍s up. As an afterthought, the worst mistakes I ever made in my life, was back in the 70s when I lived on mary jane Mars. It took 2 years to get back to earth but by the grace of God, I made it. Thank you Jesus. And it was not a republican jesus .
@caolee Keith I'm really impressed by what you wrote and personality. I also admire your good sense of humor here. I don't normally write in the comment section, but I think you deserve this complement....I'd like to be your friend if you don't mind, how are you doing today?
I love this man! He needs to do audio books….could listen to his voice all day! No light on the topic I just really love his accent. 2 years…wow, I couldn’t work for the police because I don’t have those kinds of patience. Awesome job as always POLK Cty!!!!
A wonderful international effort led by Sheriff Grady Judd! Kudos and thanks to each law enforcement department, to each individual involved, as well as to the Prosecutors' side in each jurisdiction. *Great bust!*
God bless all of you. We need every city, county, and state in this country to get rid of the illicit drug trafficking. Thank you for fighting this battle!
Lol. Such a ridiculous waste of energy. Our model for "the war on drugs" is such a ridiculous load of BS! You think that going after dealers is going to do anything at all other than crowd prisons? Everything starts with demand, not supply and as long as there are addicts there will always be 100 dealers cropping up when 10 are taken down. Other countries have figured it out and actually try and bring tons of treatments on demand etc. Dealers arent forcing addicts to use and no amount of locking up dealers has ever been shown as a successful model to reducing addiction levels etc. Give me a fng break pal.

Yeah they're doing a great job and the war on drugs has been really successful in getting rid of drug trafficking. Right? I mean after all this work and taxpayer money spent surely now we don't have to worry ever again.
@@jurassiclizzard lol this stupid idiotic moron who has the mindset of a 1950s prude who still thinks you should do 25 years for possession of weed. Dumb moron thinks, despite all the numerous data thats come in and is rock solid and steady across several factors etc. That treating an addict like a criminal instead of a person with a disease which the entire scientific, and health community has ruled addiction as a legit disease. The worst thing you can do to an addict to reduce there chances at sobriety is to alienate, isolate and stick a label on them so they cant work and just go off somewhere alone and continue using. This dimwit has not a fng clue.
Just want to say I'm from the UK and this leadership is exactly what America needs. Very professional, informational, motivational and effective. Most importantly they work for and in the interests of the people living there. Best wishes from across the pond
@@itoo3654There are many dedicated law enforcement everywhere but America suffers with the highest population of people suffering with mental illness's so if that doesn't say something then I'm free to worry about which ally I choose, We follow American news pretty closely as a lot of the times your decisions end up effecting us as well especially in the Financial sector.
Of course. That’s a given. An investigation this size would take collaboration. Florida at its finest. They have laws there which you have to follow. I bet they didn’t release the criminals in a matter of hours either.
On this scale? It took 2 years to net 268 pounds of meth, 31 pounds of cocaine, 180 pounds of pot and 8 OUNCES of fentanyl? Otay Mesa, CA cops seized 5,528 pounds of meth and 127 POUNDS of fentanyl in a matter of minutes last year. But they didn't call a huge press conference to pat themselves on the back. They just went back to work. Philadelphia CPB seized 39,525 pounds of cocaine in 2019. That's 20 tons! Sheriff Judd seized 180 pounds of marijuana, that he claimed was worth $1.6 million, that's $555 per ounce. Not that he'd exaggerate. The values of the meth and coke were ridiculously exaggerated as well. I have much more respect for law enforcement that speaks softly and carries a big stick, in other words makes big seizures without tooting their own horn.
Sheriff Grady Judd gives credit to all the Law Enforcement people involved in taking these criminals off the streets. Some he simply cannot publicly name for obvious reasons. Some people only see the person that breaks the news to the public as the hero. And it’s just an oversight by so many in our society that don’t take the time to learn the entire details of these cases.
No offense, but '[you] lost your daughter...to' either profound mental illness or some other serious defect in character. Get a hobby, read, take a walk, stop looking for a bogie-man under every bed to blame for people's flaws. Why the Hell would anyone of sound mind and body ingest any such crap ? So unless your daughter or anyone else for that matter was held down and forced to consume harmful substances, the only one otherwise to blame for their crazy behavior would the person staring them right back in the face upon reflection in the mirror.
I just love this man. I live in Louisiana, but I just tune in from time to time to see what he is up to. The people of Polk County are lucky to have him.
Thank you for your service. God Bless you for taking a stand against the evil in this world. I'm sure you saved a lot of peoples lives. More Power to You.

wow, another ignorant "bootlicker" who believes cops are there to "serve and protect" people. Being a cop is a favorite job of narcissists/sociopaths/psychopaths, along with being bankers, ceos, doctors, generals, judges, lawyers, politicians, preachers, media, sales, etc.. They are known as the "ruling elites". Sadly, most people will look up to them and give them consent to be their rulers since they're often good looking, well spoken, dress nicely, wealthy, etc.. And they are often the ones who created the mess we're living in. BTW - SCOTUS has ruled repeatedly that cops have no duty to "protect and serve" the public from harm, which is why a Federal judge in Florida dismissed the lawsuit by Parkland students and parents against Broward county for failing to protect students from the mass shooting in 2018. Or the Surfside Condo collapses. And the 379 cops in Uvalde will all get away with their cowardly actions.
No they are not saving people's lives. Criminalizing drugs is why people commit violence and why people die from overdoses. If you don't understand that you're not intelligent at all.
When are criminals going to understand, don’t mess with sheriff Grady and Polk county. They don’t mess around. Bravo 👏. We need more criminal justice professionals like him and the state of Florida in this country. Can you imagine how quickly he would clean up California. It’s a huge eye opener seeing what a well run state looks like and Florida is the leading example for the country. Desantis and sheriff Grady are a godsend. Thank you governor desantis and sheriff Grady.
He is FILTHY and a BAD COP. Take a look at his absolute refusal to allow body cameras on his deputies then look at how many of his deputies have been arrested and jailed the last few years. Perhaps the WORST and the DIRTIEST Sheriff in America today.
@@whatfloatsmyboat7209 That is a lie!!! I know someone personally who was arrested by Sheriffs there and they had a body cam!! Get your facts straight!!!
It's in bedded in us. when are you going to understand us.. who are the bad people the delivery or the pickup or the user which one goes to prison think about that hot shot
Now that's hard earned tax dollars at work. Thank you all for your diligence and coming together to get the job done. Thank you also for sharing this with your neighbors in Florida. Peace and safety from Hillsbourgh county.
Awesome work!!! This is exactly what most of us take for granted about law enforcement! So many lives saved & even more lives avoid complete destruction! These actions effect all the way down to small children of the addicts. Thank You All
I'm so impressed with this sheriff. He only says what he means, no bull about it. I only wish there were a 1000 more like him. Maybe then a dent would be made in this terrible drug problem in this country. You go Sheriff Judd, keep doing what you're doing.
@Sadie Congratulations on surrendering your civil liberties b/c of drugs, I guess. Portugal legalized all drugs and found crime plummets, people seek treatment, and the jails are emptied of nonviolent 'offenders.' The 'war on drugs' is a political scam.
I’m not disagreeing with you at all. I just would like to add, if we can reduce the “demand” for these drugs, we can end the war on drugs. Why is it we always blame the drug smugglers? We need to identify the drug users who pay for the drug smugglers services. Why doesn’t the Sheriff try to address the drug use in Florida?
Sheriff my respects you’ve done a fantastic job keep up the greatest work you can because most people in the United States deserves to be without drugs. Our government doesn’t care about America. I hope you find them all and lock them up for life. Bless God for people in your department that cares about America. God bless all of your Law enforcements That are honestly doing the right thing.Keep the faith and please help the USA.Please stay safe and with God’s help you’re making a better world
This guy makes me laugh, he truly enjoys his job. Just imagine what a safe country we'd have if sheriffs and DAs like that we more the norm than the exception.
Most police & DA's do an excellent job and are the normal not the exceptions. The US is a huge country with over 300 million Americans that all of law enforcement has to somehow be there for them. The US has the highest incarceration rate of the whole world and your implying their not doing their jobs?
It’s refreshing to see law enforcement speaking directly to its citizens to discuss the success of an operation. Especially because this issue seems to be ignored as high up as our Commander in Chief. State & local agencies can make a difference. Well done 👍🏼
The USA cannot thank you enough Sheriff Grady Judd. You are the citizens Sheriff HERO. Your dedication is outstanding and so much appreciated. God Bless You Always
