Investigators with the Medford Area Drug and Gang Enforcement team seized more than 100 grams of cocaine and arrested two Eagle Point residents in early April following a two-month investigation.
The MADGE team served a search warrant at a residence on Ponderosa Way in Eagle Point after initially receiving multiple community complaints about suspected cocaine distribution.
While executing the warrant, officers seized more than 100 grams of cocaine, located eight firearms, including “ghost guns” — a unserialized and untraceable firearm typically assembled by components purchased as a kit — at the property, approximately $48,000 in cash, four vehicles and a motorcycle.
The two people residents taken into custody were Ulysses Timothy Chappel III, 55, and Stacy Lyn Cramer, 52.
Chappel and Cramer were both charged with unlawful possession, delivery and manufacture of cocaine, and Chappel received an additional charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
They were lodged in the Jackson County Jail. Chappel’s bail was set at $100,000. Cramer was not listed in jail logs Monday.
The MADGE team is a multi-jurisdictional narcotics task force with members of the Medford Police Department, Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, Oregon State Police, FBI and more dedicated to identifying, disrupting and dismantling drug trafficking organizations locally and internationally.
