On five different occasions between April 7, 2021 and May 26, 2021, Greene-McNeil sold a total of more than a kilogram of methamphetamine to an undercover Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agent in Brunswick County. The next month she sold a 9 mm handgun and a sawed-off .22 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a 110-round drum magazine to ATF agents at the same location.
On June 23, 2021, Greene-McNeil was stopped for a traffic violation and during a search of her vehicle, Brunswick County Sheriff’s deputies found a kilogram of meth.
Greene-McNeil’s arrest was part of Operation Golfer, which is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces investigation. She was one of 20 individuals arrested in the operation, spanning five counties.
