Carr’s brother, 57-year-old Donald Raymond Carr, was also arrested in connection. The two were living at the home of their 76-year-old mother. A search warrant was carried out by the Tuolumne Narcotics Team yesterday, items related to the sale and manufacturing of the drug were located.

The third person arrested, 42-year-old Cory Bruce Modrell, was living in a trailer on the property. He was found in possession of drug paraphernalia, a meth smoking pipe and hypodermic syringes.

Sgt. Jeff Wilson of the Sheriff’s Office reports that the residence and property were in deplorable condition with rotting food, trash and overall unsanitary conditions.
