Over $746,000 of illegal drugs and 31 drug dealers are now off the Florida streets after Operation Heartbreaker, a nearly year-long countywide undercover operation targeting drug dealers in Flagler County.
Flagler County Sheriff’s Office’s Special Investigation Unit (SIU) seized four firearms, just over $6,400 in cash, and over 1.3 kilograms of various kinds of drugs in Operation Heartbreaker, including cocaine, fentanyl, methamphetamine, cannabis, and MDMA. At the time of publication, 31 of the 43 arrest warrants have been served by SIU detectives as part of this operation.
“I want to commend our undercover team, Special Investigations Unit, Evidence, CSI, PACE Unit and our patrol teams but especially our community that has spoken up saying they don’t want this poison in their neighborhoods,” Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly added. “When they saw something, they said something. We investigate every tip, and today you see the results of your tips. We will never know how many overdoses or deaths we prevented with this undercover operation.”
Nearly all of the 48 suspects in Operation Heartbreaker face at least one charge of selling or intent to sell illegal drugs, including five whose identities are being withheld as investigators continue to actively work these cases. Most of the suspects arrested are Flagler County residents.

Sheriff Staly says it’s only a matter of time before FCSO rounds up the rest of the poison peddlers.
“If you are on this list and have not been arrested yet, just call us or go to the Green Roof Inn and turn yourself in,” Sheriff Staly added. “That way, you don’t have to look over your shoulder wondering when we will be arrested because I promise you, if you are one of these poison peddlers, we will get you. This should also be a warning to drug dealers that, if you are not listed in this operation and you are selling poison in our community, I suggest you get out of Flagler County because you are next! And if you sell a fatal dose of poison, we will investigate you until we can lock you up for murder.”
