Bronson, Florida-On October 9, 2009 the Levy County Sheriff's Office Drug Task Force arrested Kurtis Lorenzo Daniels for multiple felony drug charges in the City of Bronson.

 

Drug Agent Joey Barrera conducted an investigation on September 4, 2009 in the illegal narcotic transactions behind the Bronson Post Office.  Through the investigation a confidential informant was used to purchase crack cocaine from Daniels from September 4 through September 14, 2009.  Out of the four crack cocaine purchases two drug transactions were made within 1000 feet of public housing.  If Daniels is convicted for the sale and possession of crack cocaine within 1000 feet of public housing it does enhance the sentencing phase.  Daniels has a previous criminal past with law enforcement and has been convicted two times for felony drug charges.
