OKLAHOMA CITY — This is an official press release from the U.S. Department of Justice (USAO - Oklahoma, Western), published as received.

OKLAHOMA CITY – ELTRAMANE NEAL, 47, WILLIE JEFFERSON, JR., 43, and DONTE PARKER, 44, all of Oklahoma City, have been charged for their roles in a conspiracy to possess and distribute nearly 180 pounds of methamphetamine, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.

According to court documents, on May 14, 2026, law enforcement was conducting surveillance on Jefferson and Parker and observed them meeting at a residence in northeast Oklahoma City. A short time later, agents observed Neal arrive at the residence, where Neal and Parker loaded a black tote into Neal’s vehicle. After Neal left the residence, a traffic stop was conducted on the vehicle. A subsequent search of the vehicle resulted in the seizure of approximately 99 pounds of methamphetamine, most of which was contained inside the black tote. While waiting for a search warrant for the residence, officers conducted a traffic stop on Jefferson and found a key to the residence and a large amount of U.S. currency. While executing the search warrant at the residence, law enforcement recovered approximately 80 more pounds of methamphetamine.

Today, Neal, Jefferson, and Parker were each charged by Complaint with conspiracy to possess 500 grams or more of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. Each appeared in federal court this afternoon. If found guilty, they face up to life in federal prison and fines of up to $10,000,000.

The public is reminded that these charges are merely allegations, and that the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

This case is the result of an investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the Oklahoma City Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Matt Anderson is prosecuting the case.

This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
