According to the sheriff\u2019s office, deputies were working within Groveton city limits on Friday in an attempt to serve a burglary warrant. While attempting to locate the suspect for that warrant at a home on Sunset Road in Groveton, deputies found evidence that the house was being used to distribute illegal drugs.<\/p>\n
The sheriff\u2019s office then secured a search warrant for the home and searched the location. Inside the home they found baggies, 15 grams of suspected \u201ccrystal like\u201d narcotics, drug paraphernalia and unused packaging materials.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce that warrant was executed, it became clear this wasn\u2019t just somebody\u2019s house\u2026 it was a full time bad decision factory,\u201d Trinity County Sheriff Woody Wallace said.<\/p>\n
Two women were arrested following the deputies\u2019 search of the home. Heaven Porter was arrested for manufacture and delivery of between 4 and 200 grams of a controlled substance. Melanie Casier was arrested for manufacture and delivery of between 1 and 400 grams of a controlled substance. Both have been booked into the Trinity County Jail.<\/p>\n
The burglary warrant suspect was arrested later for the charge of burglary of a habitation.<\/p>\n
\u201cTurns out you can run for a while, but eventually you run out of road in Trinity County,\u201d Wallace said. \u201cLet this be a reminder\u2026 if you are operating a drug business, you might want to consider a different line of work. Because around here, we do not offer business licenses for that kind of operation\u2026 just jail space.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
