Alexander Green, a North Carolina man, has been arrested for allegedly selling drugs on the dark web, linked to two overdose deaths in the Tri-State area. He faces federal charges for conspiracy to distribute and possess controlled substances. Green operated an online business called Starlabs, selling various drugs including heroin and fentanyl through the DrugHub darknet marketplace. Investigators traced packages containing drugs back to Green using shipping labels from Orange Mailer, which resells USPS labels. His arrest followed an investigation that revealed he had a history of drug-related offenses, including a prior incident involving his child. The Hamilton County Heroin Coalition Task Force conducted multiple drug buys from Starlabs, confirming the presence of fentanyl in the drugs. Green was arrested on July 16, 2026, after a search of his Google accounts revealed incriminating evidence.
