The Jose Gonzalez Case

In January 2007, ATF agent Brandon McFadden and Tulsa police officer John K. "JJ" Gray raided the home of Ryan Logsdon, a suspected drug dealer. The two officers handcuffed Logsdon in his living room while his girlfriend and three-year-old son watched. They threatened him with jail and separation from his child if he did not cooperate. Logsdon then led the officers to $13,000 in cash and one-half pound of methamphetamine. Henderson and McFadden each grabbed $1,500 and stole the methamphetamine, which they later sold back to Logsdon for $7,000. The officers turned the remaining $10,000 over to the police department and processed Logsdon’s car for forfeiture. Logsdon, who was never charged, became a confidential informant. He also became a customer, buying between $250,000 and $300,000 of methamphetamine from the two officers. McFadden later said:

“I used the position as a special agent with ATF to further the drug conspiracy and abused my position as a special agent. During this time, myself and Henderson seized drugs and money which were kept for our own personal benefit.”

At the same time, he asserted, they were also trying to make Tulsa safer by arresting people they suspected of dealing drugs.
