A Cleveland man faces three felony counts following his recent arrest for alleged drug trafficking.
Jimmy Moss, 36, was booked into the White County Detention Center on September 17, according to the GBI’s Appalachian Regional Drug Enforcement Office (ARDEO).
The investigation began after several people tipped off law enforcement that Moss was distributing drugs, says ARDEO Special Agent in Charge Ken Howard.
ARDEO agents, deputies from the White County Sheriff’s Office, and officers from the Georgia Department of Community Supervision served a fugitive warrant on Moss at a home in White County. During the search, Howard says agents seized suspected methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Authorities charged Moss with trafficking methamphetamine and two probation violations, according to online jail records. As of September 23, he remained jailed without bond.
The Hall County Sheriff’s Office also assisted with the investigation.
ARDEO is a multi-agency unit that covers 30 North Georgia counties. Howard encourages anyone with information about illegal drug activity in the region to contact the unit. ARDEO may be reached at 706-348-7410. You may also submit anonymous tips by calling 1-800-597-8477.
