Six Wisconsin Rapids residents are facing drug charges after a search warrant turned up a multitude of methamphetamine, marijuana, and drug paraphernalia.

According to reports, on Dec. 22 a search warrant was executed by the Wisconsin Rapids Police Department along with members of the Wood County Drug Task Force at a residence on the 900 block of Baker St.

Inside, officers identified 34-year-old Jesse Gardner, 38-year-old Paula Garrison, 39-year-old Rocco Grasso, 25-year-old Tiffany Marshall, and 32-year-old Doua Moua as residents of the address. 19-year-old Kassidy Stelzer was identified in a vehicle in the driveway.

During the search, in a bedroom belonging to Moua and Marshall, officers found 7.9 grams of methamphetamine, two bags of marijuana, and in a silver container, a zip-loc bag containing 31.68 grams of methamphetamine. Another 16.47 grams of marijuana was found in a drawer nearby.

Police discovered a ledger with known methamphetamine users and dealers written on it. Also found was an envelope containing amounts of money and weights for that money, and a grinder containing marijuana with the name ‘Doua Moua’ written on it. Officers also found several digital scales and drug paraphernalia in the bedroom.

According to Moua, he and Marshall lived at the residence, and paid rent money to Garrison. Moua was currently out on bond for firearm charges and was to commit no further crimes.
