ACSO Charges Felonies for Attempt to Sneak Drugs into the Detention Center

On December 21, 2021, an Alamance County Sheriff’s Office employee reviewed information that indicated that Amanda Rose Gomez and Inmate Billy Staley were working together to sneak something in a thermal shirt into the Detention Center. Detectives with the Alamance County Sheriff’s Office immediately opened an investigation and observed someone bringing a package into the Detention Center lobby on December 22, 2021. 

The package was sent to the Criminal Investigations Division where suboxone strips were located sewn into a thermal shirt. Billy Staley and Amanda Gomez were both charged with a felony of conspiring to deliver a controlled substance. 

On January 6, 2022, Ms. Gomez turned herself into the Alamance County Detention Center to be served. She was given a $10,000 secured bond for her charges.
