This defendant obtained his drugs from drug distributors in Mexico by way of GA. He then distributed the drugs in NC, GA & FL and wired the drug proceeds back to Mexico. Law enforcement seized methamphetamine, firearms, ammunition, & over $10,000 in cash from him.
He was sentenced to over 21 years imprisonment for his role in this organized drug conspiracy. This case shows our commitment to partnering with local, state & federal law enforcement to disrupt & dismantle drug organizations.
This drug supplier traveled to GA to purchase methamphetamine & then distributed to local NC drug dealers. He received an enhanced sentence after the Court found he attempted to obstruct justice to derail his prosecution. Thanks to @DEAATLANTADiv & @SheriffHCSO for their work.
Honored to be the Women’s History Month speaker at the Spirit of Liberty Worship Center. Community engagement is really important to me and I’m honored to be able to speak with community leaders and members at various events. #WomensHistoryMonth
This violent offender robbed two businesses in Charlotte. He pointed firearms at the victims in both robberies while demanding money. My office will continue to prosecute violent offenders such as this. Thanks @FBICharlotte & @CMPD for the investigation in this case.
Joined by AUSA Regina Pack, it was great to speak with students at Julius Chambers High School about our journeys in becoming public service attorneys. @JCCougars is only 1 of 2 schools in Charlotte with Public Safety & Law & Justice classes.Thanks Mr. Kellogg for the invitation.
I am honored to be a part of this important initiative, centered on promoting diversity in the criminal justice field. These events are a remarkable opportunity to engage directly with students & spark their interest in careers they may not have explored up to this point.
Looking back to when I was in college, there were limited opportunities for minority students to be exposed to and learn about professional opportunities in this field. I am excited be a part of the LELA program and I am looking forward to participating in future events.
It was great highlighting the work of criminal justice professionals to @JCSUniversity students. I was encouraged by hearing students discuss their aspirations after college. Diversity is important. Real role models matter. Thanks @ATFCharlotte & @JCSUniversity for this event.

Twice-Convicted Embezzler is Sentenced to Prison for Executing Back-to-Back Fraud Schemes: Lisa Buza Hill of Belmont, with two prior federal embezzlement convictions, received 57 months in prison for executing back-to-back fraud schemes. https://t.co/InDj9UZyzZ
This sex trafficker set up commercial sexual encounters for a minor victim 24 hours a day, seven-days a week, throughout 4 different states. Protecting young people from child predators such as this is a priority for my office.
I commend @FBICharlotte, @HSI_Charlotte & @CMPD for their investigation in the case. Sex trafficking cases are some of the most important & difficult prosecutions my office handles. I commend the work of our law enforcement partners, which led to Hasty’s substantial prison term.
Hill is a serial embezzler. Despite multiple federal fraud convictions, Hill remained undeterred & continued to steal money from her employers, past & present, lied to federal authorities, & exhibited disregard for the law & criminal justice system. Today, the buck stops here.
This tax “ghost preparer” failed to identify himself as a paid tax preparer on tax returns he prepared or submitted as required by the IRS. He also included false & fabricated information in the tax forms he prepared for others. This is fraud and illegal.
Wire fraud. Tax fraud. Aggravated identity theft. Fraud doesn’t pay! My office will continue to prosecute those involved in fraudulent schemes such as this.
