"I’ve got a great group of dedicated investigators who’ve forged great local partnerships, and all I can say is that if you’re selling fentanyl, you better stop. You’ve been warned." Carter said the cash seized was from drug proceeds. The case is being prosecuted by the Shelby County District Attorney's Office.
