An investigation revealed that Austin Dewayne Nation, 31, was receiving illegal narcotics through the mail. Nation received numerous parcels of mail in a 60-day period from out of state.

When a package was delivered to the post office, a K9 deputy with the Tulsa County Sheriff’s alerted its handler that drugs were inside the parcel. Agents obtained a search warrant for the package and discovered more than 445 grams of methamphetamine disguised as counterfeit pills. Agents swapped the drugs out and allowed the package to be delivered. Agents saw Nation receive the package at his home and detained him. After agents obtained a search warrant for Nation’s home in Kellyville, court records show they found additional drugs, scales, baggies, approximately $3,625 in cash, and two firearms.
