The Goldsboro Wayne County Drug Squad has arrested four people on drug charges.

Lisa Renae Grady, 37, of U.S. 13 South, was charged with possession of a precursor chemical, possession of drug paraphernalia and maintaining a dwelling. Bond $50,000.

Desiree Nicole Faucette, 21, of the same address, was charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. Bond $35,000.

Carlton Dean Odom, 26, of Scotts Hill Drive, was charged with possession of methamphetamine and carrying a concealed weapon. Bond $35,000.

Andrea Beth Howard, 19, of West Main Street in Mount Olive was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and maintaining a vehicle. Bond $10,000.

The arrests were made shortly after midnight at the house on U.S. 13 after the drug squad received information from Crime Stoppers. Odom was at the house, and Ms. Howard pulled up to the house while the squad was there and consented to a search of her vehicle.

A member of the drug squad said the house is an ongoing problem, and the community has cried out about it. He said as long as people continue violating controlled substance laws there, the squad will keep arresting them.

Arrests have been made there recently, two on Dec. 13 and another one on Christmas Day.
