Heather H. Tetterton, 40, is scheduled to appear in Beaufort County Superior Court next month to answer to drug-related charges.

Tetterton’s tentative court date is Aug. 11, according to a court-related website. She was arrested Sept. 24, 2010, and charged with two felony counts of embezzlement of a controlled substance by employee, two felony counts of possession with intent to sell and deliver a controlled substance and one misdemeanor count of possession of a controlled substance.

Tetterton, who lived at 401 Harvey Road, Washington, at the time she was arrested, was released from custody after a bondsman posted a $14,000 secured bond.

Tetterton’s arrest stemmed from investigators receiving complaints that Tetterton, a pharmacist at Tayloe’s Hospital Pharmacy at the time of her arrest, was stealing prescription pain pills and testosterone, an anabolic steroid, from the pharmacy.

Investigators with the sheriff’s office, State Bureau of Investigation and the North Carolina Board of Pharmacy worked together in establishing evidence to substantiate the compliant.

The arrest warrants, issued by Magistrate David A. Curtis, specifically accuse Tetterton of stealing 10 dosage units of hydrocodone and one vial (2,000 mg/10 ml) of testosterone cypionate while working at the pharmacy.

The arrest warrants indicate the offenses occurred Sept. 24, 2010. The complainant was J.T. Shiflett with the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office, according to court documents.

Those documents yielded no information concerning legal counsel Tetterton may have hired or had appointed to represent her in court.
