Abbeville -- The half-brother of Wilcox County Sheriff Stacy Bloodworth is facing Meth charges following a two month investigation that lead drug agents to his Abbeville Home.

28-year-old Justin Bloodworth is charged with possession of methamphetamine after investigators searched his home Tuesday morning. The investigation was turned over to the South Central Drug Task Force in Fitzgerald after Sheriff Stacy Bloodworth learned of possible drug activity involving his half-brother.

Information learned after the arrest lead to the bust of a Meth lab in Dodge County and more arrests are expected.

The South Central Drug Task Force says that Sheriff Bloodworth handled the case professionally. Bloodworth said he won't tolerate drug activity, family or not. If you have any information on drug activity you can contact the Southern Central Drug Task Force at 229-424-0000.

Justin Bloodworth is being held in the Dooly County Jail.
