Williams was arrested Oct. 16 after she left the drug store. Police said she was in possession of schedule II hydrocodone in the form of six different prescriptions with each one in a different name at the time of her arrest.

From Oct. 27: Three arrests made in alleged Polk drug distribution ring

Polk County drug officers made a third arrest last Friday after an investigation into what they claim is an organized ring that distributed approximately $100,000 worth of the prescription drug hydrocodone.

The arrests include one employee of Bradford Drugs in Cedartown, according to a press release issued from the Polk County Police Department’s Narcotics Enforcement Team. Capt. Michael McGhee said none of the business’ other employees were involved.

According to McGhee, search warrants for one of the suspect’s homes and the drugstore were initiated earlier this month. Evidence found in those searches led to the arrests, which began Oct. 16.

That was when the narcotics team and the Polk County patrol division arrested Brittany Sheree Williams, 23, of 378 Browning Road, Rockmart, after she left Bradford Drugs.

McGhee said Williams was found to be in possession of schedule II hydrocodone in the form of six different prescriptions with each one in a different name.

She was charged with possession and has since been released on a property bond from the Polk County Jail, according to jail records.

According to jail docket reports, the next arrest was made within hour and a half.

McGhee said the team arrested Bradford Drug employee Tyler Presley, 23, of 1797 Antioch Road, Cedartown, on a charge of distribution of schedule II hydrocodone.

Presley has since been released from the jail on a property bond, jail records stated.

The third arrest warrant, which was the one initiated Friday, was for Walter Presley Jr., 30, of 235 Wimberly Hill Road, Cedartown, on a charge of conspiracy to possess schedule II hydrocodone.

Presley has since been released from the jail on a property bond, jail reports said.

Additional charges for each of these individuals are pending the results of an ongoing investigation, according to McGhee.

These charges could include, but not limited to, multiple counts of the following computer forgery, obtaining a prescription by fraud, failure to keep prescription records, obtaining a prescription by misrepresentation, falsifying records, using a communication device to Facilitate a felony, theft, use of false name or address when obtaining a prescription, identity fraud, possession of a controlled substance, distribution of a controlled substance, and conspiracy.

Police state the three were members of a Polk County-based organized crime group, which focused on selling and distributing large quantities of schedule II hydrocodone. According to McGhee, the drug was illegally obtained from Bradford Drugs.

He said the three are believed to have been conducting their operation since March 31, 2008. Officials state the approximate street value of the drug allegedly obtained and sold by the three was approximately $110,000.
