Ralph Lochridge is director of communications for D.A.R.E America (Drug Abuse Resistance Education). President Obama has nominated Michele Leonhart for administrator of DEA, the top post. She is currently the acting administrator. The Senate must still confirm her.
By Ralph Lochridge Retired DEA Agent
As a retired DEA agent and having had Michele Leonhart work in an undercover capacity for me and having worked for her when she was head of the Los Angeles DEA field office, she is absolutely the best choice to lead the DEA.
She has excelled at every executive level position along the way to the top.
Smart. Assertive. Professional. Her experience and background just add to the mix that will help the DEA and the nation in this fight against international drug traffickers and money launderers.
