Two nabbed in drug bust near Carthage
A man and a woman were recently charged following a drug bust at a residence northeast of Carthage. On Saturday, May 30, Moore County sheriff's deputies conducted a search at 105 Barbers Park Drive. During the search, investigators seized quantities of fentanyl, methamphetamine, marijuana, THC oil, Suboxone, drug paraphernalia, four firearms and over $1,000 in cash, a release states. Christopher Kant Verbal, 28, was charged with trafficking in opium or heroin and 11 other drug-related charges, along with misdemeanor child abuse and contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. He was held without bond and has a June 12 court date. Verbal has 18 pending drug-related charges in Moore County stemming from Oct. 8, 2023 when he listed a residence of 106 Forest Circle in Aberdeen. In that case, he posted a $500,000 bond on Oct. 13, 2023. One typically pays around 10% of the bond amount to be released. Verbal also has two pending misdemeanor charges in Moore County stemming from March 7, 2024 for drug possession and carrying a concealed gun. He pleaded guilty to misdemeanor drug possession in Moore County stemming from April 4, 2022 and was fined $196. Dasani Avione Collins, 22, was charged with possession of methamphetamine and nine other drug-related charges, along with misdemeanor child abuse and contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. She was held on a $125,000 secured bond and is scheduled to appear in Moore County District Court on June 12. Collins was charged with threat of mass violence, a felony, in Moore County stemming from Feb. 22, 2019. She was issued a $10,000 secured bond on Feb. 28, 2019 following her arrest the previous day. She apparently posted the bond, although no information reflecting that was evident in eCourts. The charge was dismissed on Jan. 9, 2020 because 'doesn't meet the statutes.' At that time, Collins listed an address at 134 Birch Drive in Vass.

Online court database brings changes to Pitt County
GREENVILLE, N.C (WNCT)- The Pitt County Courthouse officially transitioned to using eCourts to make all court filings online. The transition will allow people to easily access court documents, court dates, and pay any fees or fines. This now makes 73 out of the 100 counties in North Carolina who decided to use eCourts in their court systems. The online database also makes it easier for attorneys to take care of their court filings as well. Things like filing all their pleadings will be accepted online, but wills are going to be processed in a handwritten format. Pitt County Clerk of Court Sara Beth Fulford Rhodes said the change was something the courthouse had plans to do since 2020. Things officially materialized in 2023 after surrounding counties had successful pilot programs. 'Well, before COVID-19, we were having these conversations statewide and certainly with the legislature and all our partners and they were searching for the right software company to join forces with,' she said. 'I think with COVID-19 that we kind of saw the need.' With the eCourts transition, the Pitt County Courthouse opening hour also changes to 8:30 a.m. instead of 8 a.m. Click the video above for more information. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
