You may have read this viral story yesterday. Earlier this month, 46-year-old Detric McGowan from Greenville, South Carolina spent $540 to buy every single box of cookies from two Girl Scouts outside a grocery store, so they wouldn’t have to stand out in the cold.
This story now takes a turn! Detric went from a good guy to bad guy real quick, because yesterday he was arrested by the DEA.
It turns out Detric is accused of importing heroin, cocaine, and fentanyl from Mexico, and he’s facing 22 charges for drug trafficking, conspiracy to import drugs, cash smuggling, and maintaining a drug-involved premise.
Now Detric is in jail waiting for his hearing!
