^FOR THE RECORD
Two Midville men indicted for operation of illegal pill factory
Two Burke County men have
been indicted on federal drug
trafficking charges for operat
ing an illegal pill factory.
Cedrick Gabriel Brown,
a/k/a “Pop,” 47, and Telly
Savalas Carswell, 46, both
of Midville, Ga., are charged
with Conspiracy to Possess
with Intent to Distribute and
To Distribute More than 500
Grams of Methamphetamine
and a Quantity of Heroin;
Possession of More than 500
Grams of Methamphetamine
and a Quantity of Heroin with
Intent to Distribute; and Main
taining or Using a Drug In
volved Premises, said Bobby
L. Christine, U.S. Attorney
for the Southern District of
Georgia. The charges carry a
possible penalty upon convic
tion of up to life in prison and
substantial financial penalties,
followed by up to five years of
supervised release.
There is no parole in the
federal system.
“Deadly, addictive and il
legal drugs - especially opi
oids and methamphetamine
- are ripping asunder small
towns and rural communities
throughout our country,” said
U.S. Attorney Christine. “With
our law enforcement partners,
we are determined to eradicate
these poisons from our streets.”
The U.S. Drug Enforcement
Administration began an in
vestigation in January 2020,
and with the Burke County
Sheriff’s Office, DEA agents
conducted a search of the home
on May 7, 2020, and found a
pill press, along with metham
phetamine, heroin and other
drugs; nearly $9,000 in cash;
and paraphernalia related to
drug trafficking.
“Criminals rely on pill
presses to create dangerous
counterfeit medications which
contain toxic substances such
as methamphetamine, heroin
and other dangerous and po
tentially deadly drugs,” said
the Special Agent in Charge of
the DEA Atlanta Field Division
Robert J. Murphy. “DEA and
its law enforcement partners
are committed to keeping our
neighborhoods safe from dan
gerous drugs.”
Criminal indictments contain
only charges; defendants are
presumed innocent unless and
until proven guilty.
The case is being inves
tigated by the DEA and the
Burke County Sheriff’s Office,
and prosecuted for the United
States by Assistant U.S. Attor
ney Matthew Josephson.

determined to be emergencies and 22 were non-emergent.

BCSO awarded Traffic
Enforcement Grant
The Governor’s Office of
Highway Safety (GOHS) re
cently announced the Burke
County Sheriff’s Office is one
of 21 law enforcement agencies
in Georgia to receive a High
way Enforcement of Aggres
sive Traffic grant for the 2021
grant season. Referred to as a
H.E.A.T. grant, the BCSO’s
award totals $97,158.42.
The goal of the H.E.A.T.
program is to combat crashes,
injuries and fatalities caused by
impaired driving and speeding,
while also increasing seatbelt
use and educating the public
about traffic safety and the
dangers of DUI.
The BCSO H.E.A.T Unit
will use the grant from GOHS
to develop and implement
strategies to reduce local traffic
crashes due to aggressive and
dangerous driving behaviors.
GOHS H.E.A.T. grants are
funded by the National High
way Traffic Safety Administra
tion (NHTSA).
“The loss of one life on our
roads is one too many, and
the fact almost all fatal traffic
crashes can be prevented is one
reason why we are awarding
this grant,” GOHS Director
Allen Poole said. “The target
of zero traffic deaths in our
nation is achievable, and we
will continue to help develop
and implement educational
messages and enforcement
campaigns aimed at bringing
our state one step closer to
that goal.”
Totaling $6.7 million for
2021, H.E.A.T. grants fund
specialized traffic enforcement
activities in counties through
out the state. The program
was designed to assist Georgia
jurisdictions with the highest
rates of traffic crashes, inju
ries and fatalities with grants
awarded based on impaired
driving and speeding data.
“The Burke County Sheriff’s
Office continues to be a proud
partner of the Governor’s Of
fice of Highway Safety. We
take the safety of our citizens
very seriously and will remain
ever vigilant on the busy road
ways of Burke County. We
ask our residents and visitors
to pay attention to their speed
and always wear their safety re
straints,” said Sheriff Alfonzo
Williams.
As law enforcement part
ners in the Drive Sober or Get
Pulled Over DUI and Click It
or Ticket seatbelt campaigns,
the Burke County Sheriff’s
Office will also conduct mobi
lizations throughout the year
in coordination with GOHS’s
year-round waves of high vis
ibility patrols, concentrated
patrols and multi-jurisdictional
sobriety checkpoints.
The grant will continue
through September 2021.
