Following Police Lead, Sheriff Also Plans Drug Testing The Durham County Sheriff's Department will soon put into effect a policy of mandatory random drug testing of employees, Sheriff Roland Leary announced Monday. The drug testing program will be similar to one announced last week for Durham police. "I've been thinking about it for a long time. I'm delighted to see the police department take the initiative. The citizens have a right to expect a drug-free environment within law enforcement," Leary said.

The new policy will apply to all department employees, including civilians, he said. "Some of our civilian employees work in areas with a lot of confidential information. I haven't heard of any problems within the department. I feel like my folks are clean, but I think the citizens deserve to know their officers are drug-free." The proposed policy was pre sented to Leary's command staff, which is made up of majors and captains, Monday morning. "They were certainly supportive of it," Leary said.

Police Chief Trevor Hampton said he'd be first in line for their tests and Leary said he would follow that example: I'll be the first to be tested. I feel like my staff, all of them, will volunteer to be tested." For the past 18 months the sheriff's department has been drug test- Deputy Buried In Tarboro TARBORO (AP) More than 50 law enforcement vehicles led a funeral procession for a Deputy Tommy Cone, killed Thursday in a head-on collision with a driver who was charged with driving while impaired.

The new policy will probably go into effect in the spring. The department's legal adviser, Cecily Smith, will work with other law enforcement departments currently using mandatory drug testing to develop a policy.

"When she's ready to go, we'll start," Leary said. "I'm putting it in her hands because of the technicalities involved." Employees will be tested for the presence of cocaine, heroin or marijuana. "Of course, they must advise us of any prescription drugs that are being taken," Leary said. If an employee tests positive for drugs, a second test will be, performed." Leary said. "I won't be notified until after the second test.

We'll request a different 1 lab to check it because there's always the chance of a mistake being made." Raleigh Veterans' Cemetery Near Full Burial space at Raleigh National Cemetery is almost exhausted, according to the Winston-Salem regional office of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The office said the available burial space for remains in coffins would be used up by February, although space would be available for cremated remains. Burial of remains in coffins after February "will be limited to interment of the spouse or eligible children of a family member buried in the cemetery," the veterans' office said. The seven acre Raleigh cemetery is one of four such burial sites in North Carolina. The veterans' office said Wilmington National Cemetery has used all available gravesites, while New Bern National Cemetery should have space available until 1993 and Salisbury National Cemetery, until 2010.

Raleigh National Cemetery was established in 1868 with the burial of 1,161 veterans of the Civil War. Today, it contains more than 5,000 sets of remains, including those of 548 unknown soldiers.
