LISBON — An East Liverpool man indicted under a major drug offender specification last August entered a guilty plea Tuesday to two drug trafficking counts and a single count of receiving stolen property.

Khalide Moore, 25, Gardendale Street, pleaded guilty in Columbiana County Common Pleas Court to first-degree felonies of trafficking in cocaine and trafficking in fentanyl-related compound, along with a fourth-degree felony receiving stolen property charge and specifications for forfeiture of money in a drug case.

Charges of possession of cocaine and possession of fentanyl-related compound and major drug offender specifications will be dismissed.

Sentencing was set for April 26. Moore could face a possible maximum indefinite term of 11 to 16.5 years on each of the trafficking charges and a maximum 18 months for the receiving stolen property charge.

Moore was charged after the Columbiana County Drug Task Force executed a search warrant on July 18, 2023, at Moore’s residence and found a large bag of suspected narcotic tablets and a large bag of suspected narcotics in a cabinet in the kitchen. Lab tests confirmed the 994 tablets contained fentanyl and the other substance was 583.04 grams of cocaine. The currency for forfeiture totaled $25.
