Five People Arrested on Federal Warrants

According to information issued Friday by Grundy County Sheriff Clint Shrum, Grundy County deputies, Shelbyville police, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agents have arrested five people on federal warrants on charges of conspiring to distribute drugs.
According to a report in the Chattanooga Times Free-Press, those arrested were Anthony Joseph Bosio, 43, and Jamie C. Sweeton, 41, both of Gruetli-Laager, Christopher Dean Land, 54, of Monteagle, Kenneth Britton, 38, of Whitwell, and Randy Stiefel, 52, of Coalmont.
Bosio was charged with conspiracy to distribute oxycodone; Land was charged with conspiracy to distribute oxycodone and burglary of a pharmacy, and aiding and abetting; Sweeton was charged with conspiracy to distribute oxycodone and burglary of a pharmacy; Britton was charged with conspiracy to distribute oxycodone and Stiefel was charged with conspiracy to distribute oxycodone and burglary of a pharmacy, according to Shrum.
Shrum said a break in the case first came on Sept. 22, 2015, when Robert F. “Bobby” Nunley II was arrested in Sevierville, Tenn., after the vehicle he was driving was identified as one of interest in an attempted pharmacy burglary at Lee’s Pharmacy in Sevierville.
Shrum said information from that case led to a search warrant at Nunley’s home and the identification of Nunley and others involved in a burglary at a Shelbyville pharmacy. Nunley was arrested and indicted in Kentucky earlier this year where he is currently incarcerated awaiting trial.
Shrum said the Monteagle Police Department and the Marion County Sheriff’s Office also assisted in the operation.
“This case is still very active,” Shrum said in the statement. “No further information will be released.”
