A Georgia man was found guilty of drug trafficking but his arrest came as the Lookout Mountain Drug Task Force was searching for another suspect. In February 2021, authorities were looking for Cheyanne Roberts (23), a Fayetteville resident who had an active felony probation warrant.
Georgia Man Sentenced to 20 Years For Drug Trafficking Stemming from 2021 Arrest
The Task Force tracked her down to a camper in Walker County where they found Roberts and her boyfriend Jonathan Alexander (48). Authorities noticed drugs in the camper and had cause to conduct a search once a warrant came through.
Their search turned up 8 ounces of meth, 4 ounces of marijuana, 70 Alprazolam pills, shrooms, LSD, and three firearms in both the camper and an outbuilding, according to Northwest Georgia News. Both were hit with multiple charges for possession with intent to distribute and trafficking the above drugs. The couple was also charged with gun possession by a convicted felon.
Meanwhile, since Roberts was the focus of the warrant, she was given the additional charge of felony probation violation. After the court found that Alexander was guilty of having possession of a trafficking amount of drugs, he was sentenced to 20 years.
