Clackamas County Sheriff’s Deputies attribute the recent arrest of an off-duty U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officer and his fiance to just good old fashioned responsible police work.
A routine traffic stop conducted by a Clackamas County Sheriff’s Deputy on October 8, 2010 resulted in the arrest of a female driver identified as Jamie Yvonne McFadden, 27, of Damascus.
During this traffic stop, the investigating Deputy Sheriff discovered a substantial amount of drug paraphernalia and drug residue in the McFadden vehicle. It was also learned that Jamie McFadden has an established criminal history related to drugs. On this earlier occasion, Jamie McFadden was transported to the Clackamas County Jail and lodged with a charge of Possession of a controlled substance – meth.
This arrest of McFadden triggered an alert to the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS); which, requested the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office assist with a follow-up investigation to ensure the health and welfare of any minor children possibly associated with the McFadden residence in Damascus.
On Thursday, October 14, 2010 at approximately 2:30 p.m. a DHS Case worker, accompanied by Clackamas County Deputy Sheriff’s, intercepted McFadden at a school as she arrived on campus in a 1990, Dodge, Pick-up truck.
McFadden was accompanied in this vehicle by a male subject who was soon identified as Mark Andrew Winter, 28, of Damascus.
During this ongoing investigation, the McFadden vehicle and contents were thoroughly searched; which, resulted in the discovery of a substance believed to be heroin, along with an assortment of items commonly referred to as a ‘hype-kit’.
This suspected heroin and drug paraphernalia seized as evidence was found in the possession of Mark Andrew Winter, 28, who is identified as the lone male occupant in this vehicle and declared fiance of Jamie McFadden.
CBP officials confirm that Winter is a CBP Officer, and that he has been stationed at Portland International Airport since 2006. CBP officials are deferring all inquiries regarding Winter’s arrest and any subsequent investigation to the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office.
Mark Andrew Winter, 28, of Damascus was arrested at the scene, transported to the Clackamas County Jail and lodged with the charge of Possession of a controlled substance – Heroin – within 1,000′ of a school.
