Specific details on the prison sentences for the Okeechobee Eight drug bust in 1986 are not fully documented in available records, and comprehensive information about the individual sentences for all nine Okeechobee County residents indicted is limited. The case involved 29 individuals, including nine from Okeechobee County, charged with smuggling approximately 7,700 pounds of cocaine from the Bahamas to cattle ranches in Okeechobee County between November 1984 and 1986. The indictments were part of a federal and state investigation targeting a significant cocaine trafficking operation.
