Eleven Arrested on Drug Offenses in Boone County

BOONE COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Eleven people were arrested Friday on various drug charges handed down by a Boone County grand jury, according to a news release from the county sheriff's department.

Most of the arrests were related to drug dealing-related offenses, while one arrest was made on a person caught with drugs as deputies were serving an indictment on another person.

For many of the arrests, they were brought about by lengthy investigation into their illegal drug dealings. Some were months or years in the making.

With the exception of one arrest who posted bond, each person arrested was taken to the Southwestern Regional Jail where each awaits arraignment by a Boone County Magistrate.

Additional arrests are expected to be made on other indictments of drug offenders.

  • Terry Lambert, 38, of Danville, charged with delivery of a controlled substance. Lambert is already incarcerated in the Southwestern Regional Jail in lieu of a $50,000 bond on other drug charges.

  • Justin Terral Forbes, 32, of Madison, W.Va., charged with three counts of delivery of a controlled substance. He was transported to the Southwestern Regional Jail, awaiting arraignment before a Boone County Magistrate.
