The indictments against Garner were sealed until today because, according to one document contained in the file, “If the name of the defendant was to be made public prior to arrest, the chances of apprehending the defendant or apprehending the defendant without the threat of violence or public commotion would be significantly reduced.”

Garner, who admitted to rrspin.com last year he solicited money to help get Tavarus “Tater” Ivey out of jail after he was charged with killing Corey “Biscuit” Graham in 2009, was indicted for the following charges:

Count 1 — Conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of crack cocaine and 5 kilograms or more of powdered cocaine.

Count 2 — Conspiracy to commit bank fraud.

Count 3 — Aiding and abetting bank fraud.

Count 4 — Conspiracy to launder monetary instruments.

Counts 5 through 7 — Aiding and abetting concealment of money laundering.

Count 8 — Concealment of money laundering.

Count 9 — Aiding and abetting concealment of money laundering.

Count 10 — Concealment of money laundering.

Count 11 — Obstruction of justice.

High ranking officials from the Halifax County Sheriff’s Office, throughout the weekend and today, declined to comment.

For the drug charges, the indictment says from about 1989 to late 2008, Garner allegedly conspired to distribute crack and powdered cocaine.

For the conspiracy to commit bank fraud charge, the indictment says from May to June of 2003, he allegedly tried to devise a scheme to defraud Chase Manhattan Bank when he applied for a loan to buy an H2 Hummer from Hendrick Chevrolet-Hummer in Cary.

“It was part of the conspiracy that the defendant and his coconspirator would by deceit, craft, trickery and dishonest means defraud (the bank) by assisting in the making and submission of a false loan application (for the vehicle).”

On May 16 of 2003, the unnamed coconspirator allegedly told the dealership and others she was the buyer of the Hummer and had not lied on the credit application.

She stated she was employed by Southeastern Builders and her annual salary was $67,000 per year.

In the third count, aiding and abetting bank fraud, it is alleged Garner bought the vehicle through submitting a false loan application.

In the fourth count, conspiracy to launder monetary instruments, Garner, from July to August of 2006, allegedly attempted to conduct financial transactions affecting interstate and foreign commerce.

The transactions, the indictment says, involved money from drug trafficking, “Knowing that the transactions were designed in whole or part to conceal and disguise the nature, location, source, ownership and control of the proceeds of specified unlawful activity.”

The indictment explains, “While conducting and attempting to conduct such financial transactions, (Garner) knew that the property involved ... represented some form of unlawful activity.”

Meanwhile, in counts five, six and seven — two counts of aiding and abetting concealment of money laundering and concealment of money laundering — Garner allegedly bought a 1994 Fleetwood Coronado Recreational Vehicle from Roland Holmes Auto Sales in Roanoke Rapids with drug money.

Counts eight and nine, concealment of money laundering, go back to July 23 of 2007 and August 24 of 2007. They involve him buying a propane stripper machine from L. Fishman & Son with alleged drug money.

The final money laundering count goes back to October 5 of 2007 for the payment of $2,500 to Mystique Management in exchange for a loan with alleged drug money.

The eleventh count, obstruction of justice, dates to October of last year when Garner allegedly, “Did knowingly and corruptly persuade another person, and attempted to do so, with the intent to influence, delay or prevent the testimony of that person, or cause or induce that person to withhold testimony, or withhold a record, document or other object in an official proceeding, specifically a federal grand jury.”

The indictment says Garner allegedly did so to, “Hinder, delay and prevent the communication to a law enforcement officer of information relating to the commission or possible commission of a federal offense ...”

If convicted, he must forfeit the Hummer, RV and propane stripper. Garner is scheduled for a detention hearing Tuesday in federal court in Raleigh.
