Quiet Forsyth County home was a major pill distribution center, police say

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Police arrested a Forsyth County man after tens of thousands of prescription pills were found inside.

Investigators told Channel 2’s Carl Willis that hundreds of people went to the suburban home to buy the drugs.

The drugs were bought overseas and sold to people across the country.

"This was almost like a distribution center here," Doug Rainwater with the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office told Willis.

Investigators say Jeffrey Measor was bringing in large shipments of prescription drugs, breaking them up and then shipping them back out across the country

Investigators say Jeffrey Measor was bringing in large shipments of prescription drugs, breaking them up and then shipping them back out across the country, barely making an effort to cover his tracks.

"He never wore a mask. He never used a false name," Rainwater said.

Forsyth County narcotics detectives working with federal agencies including the DEA arrested Measor on April 21, when they say they caught him with Xanax, muscle relaxers and pain pills.

“In the next roughly 30 days, we were able to intercept another 40,000 pills with his name on them," Rainwater told Willis.

In total, detectives confiscated more than 64,000 pills from his home.

"So, every other day this man was making some type of drug sale through the mail," Rainwater said.

"I'm just very speechless. That's a lot," neighbor Sokhavy Bou told Willis.

Narcotics detectives confiscated more than 64,000 pills out of Jeffrey Measor's home.

Neighbors along Springs Way were stunned about the charges. Most describe Measor as a good neighbor, although most had no idea what he did for a living.

Measor's LinkedIn page claims that he is a director of product marketing distribution for Procter & Gamble/Pro Pharma Sales.

Willis contacted the company Wednesday and a representative told him they have no record of Measor.

"As far as we know he was unemployed,” Rainwater told Willis. “For the past six months, this was his job. And it pays quite well."
