Fort Bend County Sheriff Eric Fagan Elected Vice Chair of Houston HIDTA
Fort Bend County Sheriff Eric Fagan has been elected as the Houston High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) Executive Board Vice Chair. Sheriff Fagan has been an executive board member since he took office in 2021.
The mission of the HIDTA Program is to “disrupt the market for illegal drugs by dismantling and disrupting drug trafficking and/or money laundering organizations, and to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of HIDTA initiatives.”
The Houston HIDTA executive board is comprised of 20 representatives including local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. The executive board assesses the drug trafficking threats found in the Greater Houston region, develops strategies to address the threats, and proposes funding needed to carry out the mission.
