Three Ocean County Men Arrested for Attempting to Mail Drugs

Three Ocean County men are in custody after attempting to mail drugs using the USPS service.

The Stafford Township Police Department’s Drug Enforcement Unit {DEU} was contacted by the United States Postal Service Inspectors about three packages that were seized by the U.S. Customs Border Patrol and Protection Division.

The packages were determined to contain a quantity of Steroids and LSD. The three packages were scheduled be delivered to three separate residences in Stafford Township. With that information, the Stafford Township Police Department’s DEU was able to secure three search warrants for the residences in Stafford Township.

On June 7, 2022, the DEU arrested James Balady, 55 years old of Parker Street, Manahawkin, N.J. Balady was charged with six counts of Possession of CDS – Steroids. He was processed and released.

On June 16, 2022, there were two separate arrests. The first involved Jason Benko, 18 years old of Hudson Street, Manahawkin, N.J. He was arrested and charged with Possession of CDS – LSD. He was processed and released.

The second arrest on June 16, 2022 involved Andrew Garcia-Villiez 32 years old of Driftwood Avenue, Manahawkin, N.J. He was arrested and charged with Possession of CDS – Steroids. He was processed and released as well.

All three subjects have pending future appearances in the Ocean County Superior Court.
