It's quite possible that he was directed by his chief to leave drug arrests to the Cape Joint Drug Task Force.
We had a chief that for many years denied that there was a heroin problem here. Although none of the cops will come right out and say it, the word is that he actively discouraged them from making drugs arrests, so the scope of the problem here would be minimized. "Stay out of it, that's what the Task Force is for". To hear him talk, all of the junkies were from Wareham, and they stopped and turned around at the Cohassett Narrows Bridge.
Of course, it so happened that his side business was dependent on tourism.
