MEDFORD, Ore.– The Medford Area Drug and Gang Enforcement task force seized a half-pound of meth and arrested a man at a cabin east of Ashland.
Joseph Parker, 52, of Gold Hill, was arrested near Howard Prairie Lake last week, according to documents filed in Jackson County Circuit Court.
On March 13, authorities arrested Parker’s wife, Amanda Parker, 40, on drug charges at their home in Gold Hill, where police say they seized small amounts of meth, scales, packaging, drug records and cash. Joseph Parker wasn’t home, The Mail Tribune reported.
Police say the investigation into the Parkers began in 2017, when police say they seized nearly a pound of meth in Eagle Point.
