Everywhere you go in Levelland, folks are talking about the big bust. While some were taken aback by the involvement of Deputies Bohannon and Quintanilla, others weren't shocked at all by the raid. Now some levelland residents feel betrayed and deceived, but they're still keeping faith in the Sheriff himself. One resident says - "Corruption, that's a very sad state of affairs, I mean if ya can't trust the Sheriff's Dept, ya can't trust the Police Dept....the people that are here to protect us...what's the world coming to with this meth stuff?" Another Levelland man says - "I know Mr. Kinney, the Sheriff, he's a good man and he's gonna take care of it, and there's gonna be some bad stuff that goes down once he gets a hold of them." Overall the folks of Levelland say they're glad the truth was discovered and they hope their town can get back to 'normal' soon.
