A second adult and juvenile were in the home at the time of the raid. They were not criminally charged.
In addition to the illegal narcotics, officers said they located three firearms, cash and a money counting machine inside the residence.
Campbell, who is a convicted felon, is facing numerous firearm and drug charges.
Great job, JoCo Sheriff’s Office!!
Fent is death. So many people overdose and die from those pills. Great job getting them and him off the street. That’s a lot of potential deaths taken off the street.
Bad thing is that it’s good medication for those where traditional opioids no longer work and because of these people, normal folks can’t get their medicine.
This drug killed my baby sister, Thank you for getting it off the streets and putting your life on the line everyday.

No comment.
If you have “no comment”, then why did you COMMENT? Make that make sense
Make him taste test his own product. This drugs kills and close the borders or it’d gonna keep coming in..I said what I said
Jenna, your comment about the border is true. I also want to say a big thank you to the Johnston County Sheriff’s Office for a great job and I want you to know how much all of you are appreciated for the dangerous job that you do day in and day out. Also thank for getting this guy and taking out this filthy trash. I wonder how many deaths he is responsible for.
Not one
Thankful all that poison is off the streets!!!
God has got to be tired of all the things that are going on in this world today. Drugs are rampant in almost every neighborhood. It’s so sad that Satan has such a hold on people that he can make them so dependent on the exact thing that can kill them
BUT really , It’s only by the grace of God that we are not all addicts. Thank you Lord!!!
Drugs have taken so many lives and left so many children without parents. There has to be a way to stop this epidemic….that’s exactly what it is too. An epidemic of mass proportion. Overdoses have taken the lives of, and come close to taking the lives of people who I loved and cared about. It has to stop.If we all pull together we can make a difference. We have to. With God’s help we can save lives one at a time.
Lots of people badmouth addicts but addiction is a sickness…straight from Satan himself. He’s out to steal,kill and destroy and that’s exactly what he’s doing. He’s destroying our families, killing our children,our grandchildren, our cousins,nieces and nephews, our Moms and Dads, our brothers and sisters and our closest friends and he’s laughing as he watches them take their last breath..He thrives on it.
People, We have to be the hands and feet of Jesus in this lost and troubled world and we have to show his love and mercy and grace even when we don’t feel like it….Prayer changes things. GOD IS ABLE!
