Two plead guilty to trafficking
Samantha Casey Green, 27, of Franklin, entered a guilty plea to one count of trafficking opiates as a result of a search of her person conducted by Macon County Probation & Parole Officers in August 2018 leading to the seizure of more than 4 grams of loosely packaged prescription pain medicines confirmed to be Oxycodone, a Schedule II Opiate under the North Carolina Controlled Substances Act.
She will serve a minimum of 70 months in the Division of Adult Corrections and pay a $50,000 fine for her involvement in the trafficking of controlled substances in Macon County.
Christopher Allen Wikstrom, 47, of Franklin, entered a guilty plea to one count of trafficking methamphetamine stemming from a January 2019 traffic stop on the Georgia Road by Macon County Sheriff’s deputies. Upon stopping the vehicle being operated by Wikstrom, officers conducted a search recovering several baggies of what the North Carolina Crime Lab confirmed to be methamphetamine. He will serve a minimum of 70 months and up to 93 months in the Division of Adult Corrections and will be required to pay a fine of $50,000.
