Fourteen people have been indicted on charges related to a drug conspiracy in the Eastern District of Oklahoma, according to an announcement from the United States Attorney’s Office for the district. The defendants are accused of participating in a conspiracy to possess and distribute methamphetamine and cocaine.

The individuals named in the indictment include Jerry Lee Grist, Tommy Blake McCary, Meagon Rashel Box, Leslie Gale Bellettini, Shawnda La Dawn Russell, Glenn Roger Hyde, Jeffery Lance Deaver, Jesus Martin Olivares Vasquez Sr., Dean Dewayne Henslee, Angie Eulalia Nunez (also known as Angie Farrell), David George Nunez, Raymond Erwin Welch, Willa Margarette Wear, and Clifford Eugene Berry. Their ages range from 39 to 74 and they reside in Oklahoma, Texas, and Mexico.

In addition to the main drug conspiracy charge—which carries a potential sentence of at least ten years in prison and fines up to $10 million—some defendants face further allegations. Jerry Lee Grist and Dean Dewayne Henslee are charged with distribution of methamphetamine. Leslie Gale Bellettini faces charges for possession with intent to distribute both methamphetamine and cocaine. Angie Eulalia Nunez and David George Nunez are each charged with possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.

The indictment alleges that from June 2024 until the date of indictment in November 2025, the defendants conspired together and with others “to commit offenses against the United States,” specifically related to methamphetamine and cocaine.

This case is part of a broader initiative under Executive Order 14159—Protecting the American People Against Invasion—through the Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF). The HSTF brings together agencies such as the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Bureau of Indian Affairs, FBI, Internal Revenue Service–Criminal Investigations Division, various local police departments and sheriff’s offices across Oklahoma, as well as tribal law enforcement agencies. According to authorities, this interagency effort aims “to eliminate criminal cartels, foreign gangs, transnational criminal organizations, and human smuggling and trafficking rings operating in the United States and abroad.” The task force places special focus on crimes involving children and on prosecuting violent criminal aliens.

Officials emphasize that an indictment is not evidence of guilt: “A grand jury Indictment does not constitute evidence of guilt. A grand jury Indictment is a method of bringing formal charges against the defendant. All defendants are presumed innocent of the charges and may not be found guilty unless evidence establishes guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Assistant U.S. Attorney Jordan Howanitz is leading prosecution for this case.
