The DeSoto Parish Sheriff’s Office has announced the successful conclusion of a narcotics investigation that led to the arrest of two individuals and the seizure of a significant quantity of methamphetamine in the Stonewall area.
According to Sheriff Jayson Richardson, the operation took place on the morning of March 31, 2025, when narcotics agents—alongside members of the Special Logistics and Intelligence Unit (S.L.I.U.), the K-9 Unit, and the SWAT team—executed a search warrant at a residence in the 300 block of Hilltop Road.
During the search, agents discovered a large quantity of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia inside the home. The investigation, which authorities say had been ongoing for some time, culminated in the issuance of arrest warrants for two suspects: Benny Brinkley, 70, and Glenda Brinkley, 65, both of Stonewall.
Charges Filed:
Benny Brinkley has been charged with:
Three counts of Distribution of Schedule II Narcotics (Methamphetamine)
Distribution or Possession with Intent to Distribute Schedule II Narcotics
Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
Glenda Brinkley faces charges of:

Both suspects were booked into the DeSoto Parish Detention Center following the operation.
“This is yet another example of our agency’s ongoing commitment to removing illegal drugs from our communities,” said Sheriff Richardson. “We will continue to aggressively investigate and dismantle drug activity in DeSoto Parish.”
