$2,300 in cash
Milien now faces several new charges, including:
Trafficking in amphetamine
Possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell
Possession of cannabis with intent to sell
Unlawful use of a two-way communication device

Using a residence for drug trafficking or sales
“This is another example of strong teamwork getting dangerous drugs and repeat offenders out of our neighborhoods,” HCSO said in a statement.
The investigation is ongoing.
