I know that we need to get drug dealers off the streets, however, I disagree with putting such a young woman in that position. As for the quanity of what she was to buy...isn't that how much the DEA buys with their undercover busts?

A Tallahassee man accused of robbing and killing a Tallahassee Police informant will spend the rest of his life in prison for it.

Andrea Green was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole and another 30 years for robbery which will run concurrently with his life sentence.

Green's co-defendant, Deneilo Bradshaw, is already serving a life sentence for the crime.

The bill that would impose tighter requirements for law enforcement agencies using confidential informants cleared a Senate committee Monday, but not without a few tweaks.

SB 372 cleared the Senate Criminal Justice Committee in a 5-0 vote. It’s the first action taken on the measure that would strengthen “Rachel’s Law,” named in memory of Rachel Hoffman, a 23-year-old Florida State University graduate killed in 2008 while working as a confidential informant for the Tallahassee Police Department...

The bill requires law enforcement agencies to adopt policies and procedures that “provide reasonable protective measures” when it comes to the risks facing confidential informants. It also says guidelines for management, safety and training of CIs should be adopted.
