LINCOLN COUNTY, N.C. — The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office has arrested Connie Louise Stokes, 41, following a yearlong narcotics investigation that led to the seizure of over 100 grams of methamphetamine.
The investigation, conducted by the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit, culminated in the execution of a search warrant at 1401 Highland Bluff Court.
There, an additional 14 grams of methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia, and U.S. currency were seized.
During the investigation, undercover drug buys were conducted, along with countless hours of surveillance, traffic stops, and several interviews with known drug users.
