SUMMARY: Authorities from the Covington County Sheriff’s Department and the City of Mount Olive have been contacted by the M-D-H-S in relation to a case. During an arrest, officers found a small amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, as well as over $100,000 in cash. Charles Edward Roundtree was charged with three misdemeanors but was released on a medical discharge and never showed up for a court date. The seized money will be divided among various departments, including the sheriff’s department and the district attorney’s office, to be used for upgrades and purchases like equipment and technology. District Attorney Chris Hennis was unavailable for comment. Sheriff Perkins believes this may be the largest cash seizure ever in Covington County.

The Covington County Sheriff’s Office and the City of Mount Olive will soon be buying some new equipment and technology.
