A joint effort between the Hall County Sheriff’s Office and Gainesville Police netted 22 arrests Thursday of suspected drug users, dealers and probation violators. “When you have a major operation like this it sends a strong message out to the people involved in illegal narcotics and their distribution,” Hall County Sheriff Steve Cronic said. The task force for what was called Operation Jingle Jail began organizing in mid-September, creating a list of 30 suspects and planning their arrests.
