On April 6, 2017 LCSO deputies working with United States
Marshal’s deputies conducted a warrants sweep in the Inglis area of Levy
County. Three subjects were arrested for outstanding warrants and taken to
jail.
The operation began the day before as deputies gathered
information on one particular wanted subject. Jason Eric Adams (10-25-94) was
wanted for three outstanding warrants and was a current suspect in an ongoing
robbery investigation. Deputies went to a home on Linda Street that Adams was
known to frequent. Deputies did not find Adams there, but did find a stash of
guns, drugs and used syringes. These items were seized, and the investigation
based on this discovery is still on-going.
Adams was located a short time later at a home on Debra
Street. He was hanging out with a female associate, Kristi Rose Hudak (4-21-85)
who was also wanted for an outstanding Citrus County Violation of Probation warrant.
Both Adams and Hudak were arrested and transported to the Levy county Detention
Facility.
Later this same morning, deputies located and arrested
Michael Samples (3-15-88). Samples gave deputies a false name and when his true
identity was discovered, they found that he was wanted in Citrus County for a Failure
to Appear warrant. Samples was additionally charged with providing false
information to law enforcement and transported to the Levy County Detention
Facility.
Sheriff McCallum said he is aware of the growing drug
related issues in the Inglis area of our county. He has vowed to continue the
fight against drug abuse and crimes associated with this nationwide affliction.

wanted criminals off our streets and take their guns and drugs from them.”
