On March 6, 2019, an investigator with the United States Postal Inspection Service intercepted a suspicious priority mail express package that contained approximately one pound of pure methamphetamine.

Immediately following the delivery of the package, law enforcement agents executed a search warrant and recovered the methamphetamine. Arrington admitted that the methamphetamine found in the package belonged to him and stated that he knew the package contained methamphetamine prior to receiving it. He intended to sell the methamphetamine for money.
The United States Postal Inspection Service, Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office and Catahoula Parish Sheriff’s Office conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Cadesby B. Cooper prosecuted the case.
