CONFESSION: /eads deputies to double bust FROM Page 1 Department went to the home of Christin Nichole Turner at . 512 Davis Road in Shelby, to investigate reports of drug ac- tivity and suspicions of a meth lab. During a search investigators located items consistent with methamphetamine manufacturing, according to Sheriff Alan Norman. Turner was arrested and was carted off to the Cleveland County Law Enforcement Center, where she allegedly told officers about three of her accomplices. . "Ms. Turner also described the other suspects and their vehicle to investigators," according to the Sheriff. Deputies spotted a vehicle with that same description driving slowly by Turner's house a short time later. The car picked up speed, Norman said, when its Scupanis noticed the officers on the scene. "Investigators followed the suspect vehicle for a short dis- tance and were able to conduct a traffic stop," according to the report. "During the traffic stop investigators identified the three people that Ms. Turner had described. Investigators then searched the vehicle and discovered several items that were consistent with a methamphetamine laboratory inside of the vehicle." The suspects were arrested and joined Turner at the Law Enforcement Center. Turner was being held under a $20,000 secured bond. !
