Greenup County Attempts Drug Crackdown
KENTUCKY....
Greenup County has signed into law an ordinance aimed at cracking down on prescription drug abuse by making it unlawful to open a pain clinic, often referred to as a "pill mill," in the county. The law cites narcotic pain medicine as being the driving force behind an increase of violent crime, theft, bad checks and child abuse. Officials say they know it's not a cure-all to the drug problem, but they hope it will help. Also included in this law is a provision to make it illegal to open porn shops or strip clubs.
