55 People Arrested in Glynn County Operation
FBI Atlanta
Feb 4, 2026
FBI Atlanta special agents, working with law enforcement
partners from across Georgia and in other states, captured 55 of 56
people indicted in a large drug trafficking case based in Glynn County
and St. Simons Island.
All suspects are charged with variations of
possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance. Some also
face firearms charges.
More than 150 special agents, deputies, and
police officers from multiple agencies combined to make the early
morning arrests. Multiple SWAT teams from FBI Atlanta, plus additional
SWAT teams from FBI Jacksonville, Glynn County Police Department, and
Brunswick Police, combined to make some of the most dangerous arrests.
The
FBI Atlanta investigation, led by the agents in the Brunswick Resident
Agency, found that members of the group were traveling to Los Angeles,
Miami, Atlanta, and Jacksonville to source the drugs. One indicted
suspect communicated with a supplier in China and had multiple kilos of
drugs shipped to Brunswick from overseas.
The drug trafficking
organization was responsible for distributing large quantities of
methamphetamine, MDMA, fentanyl, cocaine, crack cocaine and marijuana
throughout the area.
Agencies involved in the operation included
the DEA, GBI, Glynn County Police Department, Glynn County Sheriff’s
Office, and Brunswick Police.
FBI Dallas, FBI Columbia, and FBI Buffalo also assisted in arrests in Texas, South Carolina, and New York.
FBI Atlanta expects the final person indicted in this case to turn herself in in the coming days.
All indicted defendants are considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
The case will be prosecuted by the United States Attorneys Office-South Georgia.
