- Win Sin was accused of allowing Jackson Sr. to use her vehicle for drug transactions and transferring funds from his deals into her accounts.
- Antwain Jackson Jr. was arrested separately after trying to evade police and was found to possess loaded firearms and marijuana.
- The court appearances for the individuals involved are scheduled for September 18, with Win Sin appearing earlier on September 11.
The drug bust emphasized the severity of the drug problem in Northwest Arkansas, highlighting the need for continued vigilance and cooperation among law enforcement agencies to combat drug trafficking.
