Narcotics Task Force
The Narcotics Unit was created in 1988 when
the Federal Government initiated the Byrne Grant, which provided funding to each State for narcotics enforcement efforts. This funding was then distributed to each County Prosecutor's Office to maintain a Multi-Jurisdictional Narcotics Task Force, which is operated by the County Prosecutor and his staff. The Warren County Narcotics Task Force is comprised of an Assistant Prosecutor, a Superior Officer, a County Detective, one Clerical Staff and various law enforcement officers from other Municipal, County and State agencies.
