From the article....

Wake County DA Lorrin Freeman said that "concerns were first raised near the end of February" but took several more months to determine the evidence was not real. According to court documents obtained by ABC11, between 12 and 15 defendants were all charged with trafficking heroin, starting in Dec. 2019 through May 2020. The suspects were arrested and held in the Wake County Detention Center on bonds of up to $250,000. But, most, maybe all of the defendants were framed."

What. The. F#%k!
