IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI
1. I am a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau oflnvestigation (FBI), and have been
for approximately 7 years. Currently, I am assigned to the FBI's Resident Agency in Oxford,
Mississippi (MS). During this time, I have had extensive training and experience in the
investigations of violent crime and public corruption. This training and experience includes
evidence gathering and interviewing victims, witnesses, and suspects. The information contained
in this affidavit is the result of my own investigation and information provided to me by other law
enforcement officers. Because it is being submitted for the limited purpose of demonstrating
probable cause, this affidavit does not contain all of the information known to me and/or other law
enforcement officers involved in this investigation.
2. Based upon my training, experience, and the facts set forth in this affidavit, there is
probable cause to believe that from on or about June 2003 through June 12, 2018, as well as on
June 21,2018, July 5, 2018, and July 26,2018, the head Law Enforcement Official ofTallahatchie
County, Sheriff, WILLIAM BREWER (BREWER), committed violations ofTitle 21 U.S.C. § 846
and Title 18 U.S.C. § 1951.
3. This affidavit is made in support of a criminal complaint and arrest warrant for
BREWER, along with a search warrant for BREWER's person, vehicles, residence, and all out
buildings including bam, as well as any safes located at the residence, which residence and bam
are located at 7533 Highway (HWY) 32 East, Oakland, MS 38948. The residence and bam are
described in paragraph 9 below and photographs are attached hereto as Attachment C.
PROBABLE CAUSE
I
Case: 3:18-mj-00054-RP Doc #: 1-1 Filed: 08/10/18 2 of 4 PageID #: 3
5. CHS also reported that approximately two to three years ago, BREWER found out
CHS was dealing methamphetamine that CHS had purchased from illegal drug suppliers (rather
than stealing from drug dealers as CHS had conspired with BREWER to do for the previous 12
years before this). For the last two to three years, CHS paid BREWER $500.00 to $600.00 every
other week from the proceeds of CHS' s illegal drug dealing.
6. BREWER is fully aware of CHS's crimes and illegal drug activity which consists
of, but is not limited to, the illegal distribution of methamphetamine. BREWER protected,
conspired, and allowed CHS to conduct illegal activity in Tallahatchie County for approximately
the last 15 years. In exchange for BREWER's protection and freedom to conduct illegal activity
in Tallahatchie County, CHS provided monetary proceeds to BREWER from all ofCHS's illegal
activity. On more than one occasion, BREWER warned CHS to proceed with caution while
conducting illegal activity due to the presence of local, state, and/or federal law enforcement.
7. FBI agents approached the CHS on June 12, 2018, and CHS agreed to work for the
FBI.
8. From June 13, 2018 through approximately June, 20, 2018, CHS and BREWER
planned and agreed together, in person and through recorded telephone calls, to rob a drug dealer
in Tallahatchie County, for approximately nine to ten bricks of methamphetamine. A brick of
methamphetamine is equivalent to a kilogram. A kilogram is equal to 35 ounces or 1,000 grams.
BREWER did not know that the CHS was working with the FBI at this time and that the theft from
the drug dealer was a ruse. Under the direction of the FBI, CHS paid BREWER a total of
$10,000.00. BREWER accepted three payments from CHS on June 21, 2018, July 5, 2018, and
July 26, 2018. BREWER believed CHS had robbed a drug dealer in Tallahatchie County just like
they had planned and executed in the past, approximately 50 times. [Attachment A- complete
list of serial numbers for $10,000.00 paid to BREWER] The initial payment represented the
money supposedly stolen by CHS from the drug dealer and the last two payments represented a
portion of the proceeds from the supposed sale of the stolen bricks of methamphetamine.
9. On June 20,2018, at the direction ofthe FBI, CHS made a recorded telephone call
to BREWER. CHS told BREWER that CHS had robbed a drug dealer. CHS wanted to meet with
BREWER, but BREWER had people with him and was unavailable to meet. BREWER told CHS
to contact him the next day.
10. On June 21, 2018, CHS traveled to BREWER's residence to pay BREWER
$6,500.00 dollars, which BREWER believed was the money CHS had stolen from the drug dealer.
The $6,500.00 was concealed in a cellular telephone box that can be described as green in color
and is the average size box that a cellular telephone would be packaged in when purchased. The
cellular telephone box has writing on it for a Straight Talk Wireless, LG REBEL 3 LTE, five inch
screen, Android 7.0, 16GB internal memory. When the cellular telephone box is opened, a unique
barcode sticker with the numbers 616960226352 are visible. [Attachment B- photographs of
the cellular telephone box, photographs of the $6,500.00 paid to BREWER, and serial
numbers for the $6,500.00] During a recorded conversation, while CHS was at BREWER's
residence, CHS told BREWER that CHS had robbed a drug dealer and made it known that CHS
had recovered ten kilograms of methamphetamine and money. CHS handed BREWER the cellular
Case: 3:18-mj-00054-RP Doc #: 1-1 Filed: 08/10/18 3 of 4 PageID #: 4
telephone box with $6,500.00 and told BREWER to examine it. BREWER examined it, then
handed the cellular telephone box with the money back to CHS, and told CHS to put it under a
bucket in the barn located directly southeast from BREWER's residence across HWY 32. CHS
followed BREWER's instructions and placed the money in a bucket in the barn and departed the
location. BREWER's residence at 7533 HWY 32 East, Oakland, MS 38948 can be described as
a one story farm style house, red brick, black shingled roof, and white pillars on the front and side
of the house. BREWER's barn, directly southeast from his residence and across HWY 32, can be
described as a large steel framed shed with tin covering three sides. [Attachment C- aerial
photograph of BREWER's residence and barn, photographs of BREWER's residence, and
photographs of BREWER's barn.]
11. On June 21, 2018, shortly after CHS departed from BREWER's barn, there was a
recorded telephone call between CHS and BREWER. BREWER asked CHS where CHS put "that
shit" (referring to the money in the bam). CHS described to BREWER where CHS had put the
money. BREWER told CHS that BREWER had it and ended the telephone call.
13. On July 26, 2018, CHS traveled to BREWER's residence to pay BREWER
$2,500.00, which BREWER believed were the proceeds from CHS's sale of the stolen
methamphetamine. During a recorded conversation, while CHS was at BREWER's residence,
CHS told BREWER that CHS had sold all of the bricks of methamphetamine CHS had stolen and
had nothing left. BREWER encouraged CHS to continue selling methamphetamine. BREWER
warned CHS to be careful who CHS was dealing with during CHS's illegal activity. BREWER
instructed CHS to put the money in the same place CHS had on June 21, 2018 and July 5, 2018.
CHS then followed BREWER's instructions and placed the money in a bucket in the barn and
departed the location. [Attachment E- photographs of the $2,500.00 paid to BREWER, and
serial numbers for the $2,500.00]
14. CHS reported BREWER has a safe in his residence at 7533 HWY 32 East, Oakland,
MS 38948. CHS has known about the safe for approximately five years.
15. For the above reasons, I have probable cause to believe that WILLIAM BREWER
committed violations ofTitle 21 U.S.C. § 846 and Title 18 U.S.C. § 1951 and I respectfully request
that the Court authorize a complaint charging BREWER with the aforementioned offense and a
II
warrant for his arrest. I

16. For the above reasons, I have further probable cause to believe that evidence related
to violations ofTitle 21 U.S.C. § 846 and Title 18 U.S.C. § 1951 are located on BREWER's person,
and at BREWER's residence, located at 7533 Highway (HWY) 32 East, Oakland, MS 38948,
including the bam located across the road from the residence and any vehicles and safes located at
the residence. The items to be seized are listed in Attachment F. I further request permission to
forcibly enter any safes located on the premises described herein. 'I:. ~So r'b~ ~+- "-"
