Investigators from the Guernsey County Sheriff’s Office/Central Ohio Drug Enforcement Task Force executed a search warrant at an East Cambridge Residence in the early morning hours of Tuesday, June 4, 2024. This search warrant led to the discovery of bulk amounts of suspected methamphetamine and fentanyl, along with items of drug paraphernalia and other evidence that showed significant drug trafficking activity was stemming from the residence.

– Aggravated Trafficking in Drugs (a felony of the third degree)

Kevin and Erika Waller are in custody at the Guernsey County Jail, awaiting their bond hearings at the Cambridge Municipal Court.
Sheriff Paden said, “It appears that some people want to continue to challenge my warning that if you sell drugs in Guernsey County, we will aggressively come after you. My response to that is simply, keep playing around and find out!”
