Federal court charging documents have provided details on charges against the three arrested during drug busts at their homes in Centralia and Mt. Vernon on
October 28th.

31-year-old Ricardo Little of Centralia and Ricosha Young of Mt. Vernon and formerly of Centralia have been charged with distribution of a controlled substance.

The complaint claims the two possessed with the intent to distribute 50 or more grams of a mixture and substance containing a detectable amount of
methamphetamine.

In the sworn affidavit a Special Agent for the FBI said a confidential source contacted Young who arranged the purchase of $2,000 of methamphetamine from
Little at his home at 1208 Case Street on October 13th. While under surveillance, the confidential source entered the home and obtained three suspected bags of
meth that later tested positive and weighed 82 grams. After the deal, the confidential source placed a recorded Facebook message on Young’s page that everything was good.

Both Little and Young have been ordered detained pending detention hearings. Young’s is scheduled on Friday and Little’s next Monday.

In a separate criminal complaint, 40-year-old Bobby Everett of Centralia was also charged with intentionally possessing with the intent to distribute 50 or more grams of a mixture or substance containing meth.

In the affidavit, a Special Agent of the FBI said a confidential source was used to make a controlled purchase while under surveillance of two ounces of methamphetamine ICE from Everett at his home at 318 Elm Street in Centralia on September 14th.

Everett had a detention hearing on Wednesday and his request for bond was denied and he was ordered held in custody pending further disposition of the case. The FBI along with Centralia Police and other local agencies arrested the three when executing search warrants on their homes last Thursday. Centralia Police
Chief Greg Dodson says methamphetamine, fentanyl, marijuana, several firearms and ammunition as well as US currency were found during execution of the search warrants on the Little and Everett homes in Centralia. Young was arrested at her home in Mt. Vernon.
