Why can’t the police shut down that house if there has been ongoing problems for years ?

  For the same reasons the Cornelius Police can`t seem to get a hold on the reckless driving that occurs on West Catawba everyday. ( If THEY didn`t see IT , then IT didn`t happen) That`s what I was told specifically a while back by a Cornelius Police officer when I waived him down for the above reason. Good luck folks!

  A better question is why has Tina Marie Alexander been arrested for trafficking opium at least 3-4x before this and is always back out doing it again?
  
  There were deaths and OD’s linked to this. There needs to be murder/attempted murder added to the charges.

I live in Wooduck Cove adjacent to that house and the family that lives there have been a problem for the neighborhood for years. Hopefully the drug bust will put an end to The situation
