An undercover investigation by the Special Investigations Division of the Sampson County Sheriff’s Office, sparked by citizen tips, has led to the arrest of a 16-year-old Clinton man on a host of drug charges.

Justin Ryan Jackson, 16, of 49 Junkyard Lane, Clinton, was taken into custody at 1:45 Tuesday afternoon after concerned citizens tipped off SID officers regarding suspicious activity by Jackson on Junkyard Lane.

The teen was charged with three counts of delivering marijuana, three counts of selling marijuana and three counts of maintaining a dwelling for the storage of a controlled substance.

Jackson was placed in the Sampson County Detention Center under a $25,000 secured bond and was given a trial date of Nov. 13.

According to officials close to the investigation, the teen is alleged to have sold 12.6 grams of marijuana to undercover agents.

Two months ago, the suspect was nabbed by the Clinton Police Neighborhood Improvement Team after they responded to a complaint of underage drinking in a local parking lot, located at 935 Sunset Ave.

Jackson was immediately arrested for consumption of alcohol. During a subsequent search, investigators said they also discovered a .22-caliber pistol concealed on his person.

The bible does say that God will forgive of our sins if we ask him to, but when we do we are suppose to quit doing the same sin over and over again.

Thank you, ar123, for pointing out chris has only been to jail once. That makes me feel so much better. You act like going to jail is a right of passage for youth in Sampson County. As for karma, justin has been on the recieving end of that deal some time.

Candy and Donald, you two need clean up your mess before we see your kids' names on the crime blotter every month.

No one is perfect. Only God can judge Ryan. I am a firm believer that it doesn't matter how a child is raised, they are going to be who and what they want to be. Yes it reflects on the parents but it doesn't mean they were raised that way, I have seen this so many times for myself. "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink." Give Ryan's family a break, they can't control him or what he does. Leave the babies out of it, they didn't ask to be put in this situation, this has nothing to do with them. Remember, if you don't already have kids you may one day, and you may be in this same situation. KARMA! What goes around, comes around. Chris has only been to jail 1 time. All of you who have nasty and cruel comments, just remember you too will be judged one day, and it is a sin to judge one another, only God can judge us. You remember you will be judged for the comments you have placed on this website and for talking about other people. Gossipping is a sin and as you are looking down on Ryan, remember God is looking down on you as you are doing so.

WARNING: If you know everytime you come on here you are going to be offend by negative comments about justin, stop coming here. Stop torturing yourself. We already know justin, of junkyard lane, did these things. He's going to jail for a long time.

Stop making a fool of yourself defending this clown.

I could type for days about what I know about Ryan and some of his loving family, but it’s just a repetitious cycle and I don’t think the server is large enough to store it…

All his dope smoking friends can get on this comment section and post away about “a” bad decision. Truth is he has been in trouble time and time again. The list goes on and on.

Warning: If the fact that Ryan is nothing more than a “human stain on the underwear of life” bothers you… STOP reading now!

His parents do care about him. What he does is not there fault. They only hope that things will change for the better and so do I.

You're right, madelyn. What is this world coming to when you have 16 year olds selling drugs and 19 year old women having babies with 15 year old and the parents say nothing?

What is this world coming to when you have parents not giving a crap about their kid who is constantly in trouble with the law?

Sorry, but this loser running around selling drugs is everyone's business.

Shall I go on?

To Madelyn09,

Have you been watching the news lately? Because that is exactly how the world has become. WE are not running his name into the ground, he has already done a good job at doing that. AND had he learned from his mistakes the first time, he wouldn't be getting in trouble again would he? We are not acting like animals, we are stating our OPINIONS. I believe it also says in the Bible that God gave us the right to choose. Well, I choose to say what I think. I'm not judging him, and I don't have too. He will be judged on Nov 13!. So before you go throwing the your scripture at us, take a look at yourself. You are obviously judging us for stating the obvious. I could care less about his business, and don't wish to know anymore about him than I already do. If you want his business to stay private, take it up with the SI staff that writes the articles; or show him you're "right path".

What I don't get is why everyone is so worried about someone elses business. Hes not your family or anyone you know. So why talk about him like you know every little thing he does or is about. You have your own lives. Have you ever stopped to think about that. You never know when will be your last day here on earth, and God looks down on this wrong doing. He lets everything happen for a reason, and he never gives you anything you can't handle, and your supposed to learn from your mistakes. Hopefully Ryan will learn from his this mistakes, and turn down the right path. Ask yourself a question. Are you ever going to learn from yours? Every sin is the same weight as another, and in Matthew it tells you about judging. If you repent and ask forgivness then God erases that sin from your life, and he gives you another chance. Is it so much to ask for everyone to have faith in him and give him another chance. Everyone keeps saying that hes not supported emotionally. Well if you don't think he is, then instead of bringing him down and putting his name in the ground more than it already is, why doesn't everyone give a little support in him and some faith. How hard could that be. Don't you think he knows what he did is wrong. He's had enough time to think about it. I don't even think your realizing how immature about the situation you are being. You all are acting like wild animals. Is this what the world has become?

" what happened to him after the "parking lot" incident? "

@G-Girl- he hasn't gone to court yet, EVEN!!! His court date is 10-27.

dunno why my first post of this didn't appear- if it's because I mentioned his court date, well, umm, that's public record anyway- see here:

@ anonymous92-

when did he cause anyone any tears, you asked...

how bout his mama- granted, she contributed to the situation, but maybe his grandma- let me tell you that I've known his family way longer than he or probably you have been alive- I am sure that his grandma doesn't think any of this is o.k.

sickntired- well said, indeed.

To the Jackson family,

I'm sorry that Justin has brought shame to your family. However, his actions reflect your guidance. It has nothing to do with how you support your child, or if you constantly have an "eye" on him. This is a reflection on what you have said, and showed him. You can come up here, and defend your son, and try to make us feel guilty, but it's not going to work. No matter how you look at it, it is your fault he turned out like this. You can give a child all the love they can handle, but if you don't TALK to them, and TEACH them right from wrong, then it is your FAULT. Yes everyone makes mistakes, and yes some don't get caught. Maybe you should have taught him not to get caught.

Oh, one more thing; just because a person is sweet, and nice, doesn't mean that they are not bad. Example: BTK was the president of his church's congregational council, a cub scout leader, even graduated from college, and look how he turned out!
