That house doesnt look familiar, I've never seen it down below the hill on main street. Oh wait, its not... Nobody is un touchable when it comes to drugs and selling no matter where you live. Kudos to the E.G. P. D. and all others. Lets keep this town clean.

Great job, Elizabeth!

Why was Sharon not arrested as well - was she not part of creating this nuisance?

EG police and fire personnel will be at the East Greenwich library on Tuesday evening with advice on how to keep your home safe. With this arrest and the recent incidents on Frenchtown and Middle Roads, it should be an interesting evening. Open to the public - and refreshments will be served, complements of Friends of the Library

If ya want this town clean, the top is where u want to start the cleaning!

A few years ago, someone was cutting our fence to gain access to our property across. the road in order to ride dirt bikes. It happened several times and cows were escaping. Judy Bailey ,super sleuth, tracked them down and the police paid a visit . It was this father and his two sons. At that time the boys were not yet in their teens The family that plays together stays together.

We are very happy to hear they have finally been busted. Now let's see them prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. No plea deals. I can't help wondering what took so long. My son went to EGHS with these kids, didn't have anything to do with them, and tells us this has been going on for a very long time, and a lot of people knew it. There must be zero tolerance for this. In case anybody beyond the immediate neighborhood thinks this has no impact on them, consider these people and their customers driving through town under the influence while us and our kids are driving, walking, or bicycling on the same roads. Frightening.

It takes solid PROOF, TIME, HARD WORK to make a good arrest and to prosecute. The East Greenwich Officers involved did a great job. Yes, is does help if the community gets involved but not to the point of making it almost impossible for the police department to do their jobs. I have listen to some comments from residents and read some online it is a shame what some people beleive and can not give credit where credit is do. There is no community that is not or will not be touched by crime. Lets just take one step at a time.

“HE WITHOUT SIN” PEOPLE!This story made me sad and your comments made me even sadder. So quick to point fingers and judge.How many of you that is so worried about keeping this town safe has driven home after having too much to drink? How many of you will over serve your guests at the next back yard BBQ, and then let them drive home while your kids are driving, walking, or cycling on the same roads? Is that any less of a nuisance? Are you and your guests any less frightening?“the family that plays together stays together”so self-righteous, children learn from their parents.“not having anything to do with them” way to go,ignore the situation until it might affect you.Marijuana was not the TRUE problem, was it EGPD?Again,someone opted to take the easy way out. Clearly,there were choices made if some members of the household were arrested and some weren’t. Who decided which family member was to pay the price for the sins of the father and who wasn’t?Yes, laws were broken and that for that they will have to face the consequences.But really“prosecuted to the full extent of the law Zero tolerance” pure ignorance.The threat comes from those who are committing crimes against others not from those who are potentially hurting themselves. Marijuana should be the least of EG worries. Let’s not waste time, and resources on it any londer. Even in EG there is other harmful issues and deadly substances we should be focusing on.

Why do so many of you people take so much pleasure in seeing members of YOUR community in trouble. They messed up big time but they will not be here anymore and they will never have the same freedom they did in that house. Those of you who hope to see the future of these boys further destroyed makes me sick. These could have been your children. And for those judging the mother, well you all need to spend some more time in church or wherever it is you go to find God. No one knows what happens in another couple's marriage whether or not she had a financial excuse for staying should not be your concern. If she stayed to be with her boys even in a bad situation who are you to judge, she is a mother after all. You people need to get off your pedestals and try to have some compassion. Regardless of what they have done the justice system will take care of it and it is far from any of your places to judge. I pray for this family that they will be able to salvage what is left of their lives.

I find it ironic that the majority of people who post on this website act like this family was so harmful to the community when, in reality (I would assume) that it was this town's residents and their children who supported this "drug nuisance" and made it all possible in the first place... hmmm... Too many people turn a blind eye to their own families, as well as hopping on the bandwagon for a situation that seems to be an overly biased, and misinformed attack against this family.

I have known the family almost my whole life and they are good people .

It's alarming to see the total condemnation of this family in the comments. Are a couple non-violent offenders such a scourge that it's necessary to pass judgement upon a whole family? Is it wrong for a wife and mother to still stand beside her loved ones even through questionable decisions? There is no need to ruin additional lives due to an essentially victimless crime. Throwing an entire family in jail hardly seems a fair punishment for what, costing the neighbors some sleep from car doors closing?
