DETALLES: (OXNARD, California)– On April 27 desde 9 a.m. a 2 p.m. el Departamento de Policía de Oxnard y la Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public its sixth opportunity in three years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. Traiga sus medicamentos para su disposición en el Departamento de Policía de Oxnard a 251 Sur C Street, Oxnard, California 93030. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Last September, Americans turned in 244 tons of prescription drugs at over 5,200 sites operated by the DEA and its thousands of state and local law enforcement partners. In its five previous Take Back events, DEA and its partners took in over 2 million pounds—over a thousand tons—of pills.

In Oxnard, the Police Department has participated since the program’s inception, and has collected over 3,000 pounds of pills in the last two years.

Esta iniciativa aborda un tema vital para la seguridad pública y la salud pública. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Las tasas de abuso de medicamentos recetados en el U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. en adición, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards.

Four days after the first event, El Congreso aprobó la Ley de Eliminación de Drogas Seguro y Responsable de 2010, which amends the Controlled Substances Act to allow an “ultimate user” of controlled substance medications to dispose of them by delivering them to entities authorized by the Attorney General to accept them. The Act also allows the Attorney General to authorize long term care facilities to dispose of their residents’ controlled substances in certain instances. DEA is drafting regulations to implement the Act. Until new regulations are in place, local law enforcement agencies like the Oxnard Police Department and the DEA will continue to hold prescription drug take-back events every few months.

Watts was recently involved in a domestic violence-related incident where he was named as a suspect re: a vandalism. Probation officers were going to arrest Watts on a ten-day violation of probation charge 3454(c) PC, or flash violation.

Five probation officers were waiting for Watts as he entered the office. Watts saw the probation officers and immediately bolted away running into one of the officers. A struggle ensued with the other four probation officers joining in an effort to arrest Watts. Watts was arrested.

All five probation officers sustained injuries and were treated at a local hospital. Two of the probation officers sustained moderate injury. Watts sustained very minor injury.

Oxnard police officers took custody of Watts booking him into the Ventura County Main Jail on charged of Vandalism (594 PC), Probation Revocation (3455(un) PC), and Obstructing or Resisting Executive Officers (69 PC). 69 PC is a felony. 3455(un) PC can result in up to 180 days in the VenturaCounty Jail.
