OF PERSONAL
PROPERTY VALUED AT
$25,000.00 OR LESS
TO: ALL PERSONS CLAIMING AN
INTEREST IN PROPERTY DE
SCRIBED BELOW
Pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 16-13-49(n),
you are hereby notified that on June
11, 2014, the property described be
low was seized at 3675 Flat Shoals
Road, Room# 110, DeKalb County,
Georgia by Detective M.N. Carter of
the DeKalb County Police Depart
ment:
a. Approximately 21.5 grams of co
caine; and
b. Approximately 48.1 grams of
marijuana; and
c. Six hundred twenty dollars
($620.00) in U.S. Currency.
Conduct giving rise to said seizure
was as follows:
Said property:
a. was directly or indirectly used or in
tended for use to facilitate a violation
of the Georgia Controlled Sub
stances Act, O.C.G.A. § 16-13-30,
more specifically, the possession,
distribution, sale, or delivery of co
caine and marijuana.
b. was found in close proximity to
said cocaine and marijuana; or
c. represents proceeds derived or
realized from said violation(s) of the
Georgia Controlled Substances Act.
During the month of May, 2014, De
tective Carter received information
from a Confidential Informant regard
ing illegal narcotics being sold from
the Efficiency Lodge, room 110. De
tective Carter set up surveillance at
the location, at which time she ob
served a male subject arrive at the
hotel and enter room 110. She then
noticed that shortly thereafter, sever
al unknown people in various
vehicles arrived at the hotel, go in
side room 110 for less than 10
minutes and then leave, activity that
is consistent with illegal drug distribu
tion.
The following day she set up a con
trolled buy, where she took the Con
fidential Informant to the hotel and,
while under surveillance, observed
them enter room 110 and return a
short time later with .5 grams of Co
caine which had been purchased
from room 110 with funds derived
from the DeKalb County Investigat
ive Fund.
Several days later, Detective M
Crews and the Confidential Inform
ant went back to the target location,
where the Confidential Informant,
while under surveillance, was ob
served entering room 110 and return
a short time later with 1.1 grams of
Cocaine which had been purchased
from room 110 with funds derived
from the DeKalb County Investigat
ive Fund.
Due to these investigative findings,
Detective Carter was issued a search
warrant of the location and on June
11, 2014, DeKalb County SWAT and
DeKalb County Narcotics Unit ex
ecuted the search warrant. While ex
ecuting the breach into the location,
++Gary Matthew++ ran to the bath
room where he was discovered try
ing to flush Cocaine down the toilet.
Upon conducting the search, they
located 48.1 grams of Marijuana and
21.5 grams of Cocaine, which was
located in the toilet. They seized an
undetermined amount of USC, which
was located in Matthew’s pocket.
Matthew was arrested and transpor
ted to DeKalb County Jail. The U.S.
currency was transported to BB&T
Bank where it was counted by an em-
ployee and determined to be
$620.00. The currency was then de
posited in an account at the bank.
Matthew was charged with Violation
of the Georgia Controlled Sub
stances Act. The cocaine and
marijuana are subject to forfeiture
pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 16-13-
49(d)(1). The currency is subject to
forfeiture pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 16-
13-49(d)(2) and (d)(6).
Pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 16-13-
49(n)(3), any claim to the seized
property must be sent within thirty
days to the seizing law enforcement
agency AND to Deputy Chief Assist
ant District Attorney, Kenneth

SCRIBED BELOW
Pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 16-13-49(n),
you are hereby notified that on June
6, 2014, the property described be
low was seized at LaFortune Drive at
Kelly Lake Road, DeKalb County,
Georgia by Detective M.D. Crews of
the DeKalb County Police Depart
ment:
a. Approximately 26.08 grams of
heroin; and
b. One thousand five hundred ninety
three dollars ($1,593.00) in U.S. Cur
rency.
Conduct giving rise to said seizure
was as follows:
Said property:
a. was directly or indirectly used or in
tended for use to facilitate a violation
of the Georgia Controlled Sub
stances Act, O.C.G.A. § 16-13-30,
more specifically, the possession,
distribution, sale, or delivery of
heroin.
b. was found in close proximity to
said heroin; or
c. represents proceeds derived or
realized from said violation(s) of the
Georgia Controlled Substances Act.
More specifically, on May 30th, 2014,
Detective Crews of the DeKalb
County Narcotics Unit received in
formation from a Confidential Inform
ant (Cl) who advised him that an indi
vidual known as “Sweet,” who was
later identified as ++Roderick
Parks++, was selling heroin in the
area of Candler Rd., and Kelly Lake
Rd. The Confidential Informant ad
vised Detective Crews that they pur
chased heroin from Parks in the past.
Detective Crews was familiar with the
alias “Sweet,” since October of 2013,
due to three individuals overdosing
after injecting Heroin that was pur
chased from him.
On this same date, Crews had the
Confidential Informant to set up a
controlled buy, which upon contact
ing Parks they agreed to meet at the
Citgo Gas Station on Candler Rd. to
conduct a transaction for 1 gram of
Heroin. The Confidential Informant
was provided with an undisclosed
amount of US currency derived from
the DeKalb County Investigation
Fund. Upon arriving to the Citgo Gas
Station, the Confidential Informant,
while under visual surveillance, met
with Parks, at which time Detective
Crews observed Parks hand the Con
fidential Informant a white envelope
in exchange for the USC, which was
derived from the DeKalb County In
vestigative Fund. Upon returning to
the vehicle, the Confidential Inform
ant relinquished the white envelope
to Detective Crews which contained
,7g of Heroin.
On June 6, 2014, Detective Crews re
ceived a phone call from the Confid
ential Informant, who advised that
their friend, who was visiting from out
of town, met with PARKS without
their knowledge and purchased
heroin. Immediately after purchasing
the heroin from PARKS, the friend of
the Confidential Informant, who was
later identified as Curtis Chichester,
drove to the CVS at 2458 Candler
Rd., and injected himself with the
heroin. Approximately 3-5 minutes
later, EMS and Police received an
emergency call of a person down at
the CVS. Upon their arrival, they
found Chichester unresponsive from
an overdose. Chichester was taken
to Grady for treatment.
Detective Crews spoke to Officer
Spruill, the responding officer, who
advised that he interviewed Kelly
Burke, the girlfriend of Chichester
who was with him at the time of the
overdose and she advised that
Chichester had just purchased
$75.00 worth of heroin from Parks,
who was driving a green escape, on
Lafortune Dr.
A short time later, Detective Crews
received another call from the Confid
ential Informant who stated that an
other friend of theirs, Timothy Burke,
who had also purchased Heroin from
Parks at the same time Chichester
purchased his, had just injected
some Heroin and is now being trans
ported to Gwinnett Medical from an
overdose on the same heroin.
Fearing the heroin being distributed
by Parks could be laced with an un
known substance causing people
who use it to become critically ill, De
tective Crews obtained an arrest war
rant for PARKS for the sale on May
30th.
On June 6, 2014, upon being ob
served driving his Ford Escape,
Parks was pulled over and arrested.
An open air sniff was conducted on
the exterior of the vehicle by Officer
Summe’s K-9, which resulted in an
alert of the presence of illegal Narcot
ics. Upon placing the K-9 in the interi
or of the vehicle, the K9 alerted again
to the presence of narcotics.
Upon conducting an inventory
search, Detective McBride located
6.08 grams of Heroin, which were
concealed in a red Mentos bottle loc
ated on the passenger side backseat
floor board, in two separate white en
velopes located on the front passen
ger seat and in a white envelope loc
ated on the passenger side floor
board near the center console. They
seized an undetermined amount of
USC which was located in Park’s
Pocket and in the center console of
the vehicle.
Detectives Crews and McBride con
ducted a recorded Mirandized inter
rogation where Parks admitted to
selling heroin and that he had sold
the heroin to Chichester and Burke
which they overdosed on.
On this same evening, Detective
Crews, members of the Narcotics
Section and K9 units conducted a
“knock and talk” at Parks’ residence
where they spoke with Parks' mother
and father who own the residence.
They stated Parks has lived at their
residence since January, 2014. They
advised that Parks also owns a 1997
blue Dodge Intrepid which was
parked in their driveway. They stated
the vehicle is registered to their other
son, Philippe Parks, but suspect
Parks is the true owner and had it re
gistered in his brother’s name. An
open air sniff of the exterior of the
Dodge Intrepid was conducted by Of
ficer Carrigan and his K9, which res
ulted in a positive hit of illegal narcot
ics. The vehicle was then impounded
and a search warrant was executed
on it which resulted in 20 grams of
Heroin located on the driver side
floorboard.
Unfortunately on June 7, 2014, De
tective Crews was advised that
Chichester had died as a result of in
jecting the Heroin Parks had sold
him. This information was confirmed
by Grady Hospital.
Parks was arrested and transported
to DeKalb County Jail. The U.S. cur
rency was transported to BB&T Bank
where it was counted by an employ
ee and determined to be $1,593.00.
The currency was then deposited in
an account at the bank.
Parks was charged with Violation of
the Georgia Controlled Substances
