AFFIANT BACKGROUND: 

p/I 

/w4t 

cO, 

I, Jason Stallings, am a Special Agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and have 

been so since November 1997. Previously I was employed with the Broken Arrow Police 

Department since October 1990. In 2010, I was assigned to the San Antonio District Office since 

July 1998 to the present. As a Special Agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration, I work 

to enforce federal laws pertaining to narcotics related investigations and/or violations. I have made 

numerous federal arrests for narcotics related violations which have resulted in successful 

prosecutions. 

I have worked on numerous investigations and assisted other federal, state, and local law 

enforcement agents and officers in their investigations on cases involving violations of Title 21, 

United States Code, Section 841 (a)( 1), the manufacture of, distribution of and possession with 

intent to distribute controlled substances and Title 21, United States Code, Section 846, conspiracy 

to commit the foregoing. Specifically, those investigations have focused on the manufacture and 

distribution of marijuana, methamphetamine, heroin, pharmaceutical pills, and cocaine. I am 

familiar with, and have participated in, all of the conventional investigative methods, including, 

but not limited to, electronic surveillance, visual surveillance, questioning of witnesses, search 

warrants, confidential informants, pen registers, trap and trace, and the use of undercover 

agents. Through my training and experience, I have become acquainted with the identification of 

various controlled substances. I have also become acquainted with the various methods used by 

individuals to possess, transport, and sell controlled substances in violation of federal law. 

During the course of being a Special Agent, I have participated in numerous investigations of illicit 

drug trafficking organizations. These investigations involved the use of confidential informants, 

wire and physical surveillance, telephone toll analysis, investigative interviews, and the service of 

search and arrest warrants. These investigations included the unlawful importation, possession 

with intent to distribute, and distribution of controlled substances, as well as the related laundering 

of monetary instruments, the conducting of monetary transactions involving the proceeds of 

specified unlawful activities, and conspiracies associated with criminal narcotics offenses, in 

violation of Title 21, United States Code, § 841(a)(1) and 846.

On March 10, 2020, DEA Group D53 initiated a court authorized T-III targeting Shelby Taylor 

WOOD. On March 16, 2020, WOOD was intercepted on the T-III being asked to provide ten (10) 

kilograms of methamphetamine to two (2) CS's that were negotiating with WOOD. At 

approximately 4:03 p.m., court authorized T-III of Shelby WOOD's cellular telephone number 

(830)632-0228 intercepted a call between WOOD and Elia SANCHEZ (hereinafter SANCHEZ), 

who was utilizing cellular telephone number (210)899-9831. SANCHEZ asked if WOOD has the 

cash, and WOOD replied that he is going to meet up to get the cash. WOOD asked SANCHEZ 

where she wants to meet up and SANCHEZ says by her house and then tells WOOD to ask the 

guy if he wants some first or the ten (10). WOOD tells SANCHEZ that he wants the ten (10). 

SANCHEZ tells WOOD to call her once he gets closer because SANCHEZ would have to bring 

them (referring to the ten kilograms) over. WOOD concurs. 

At approximately 4:05 p.m., WOOD contacted one of the CSs and advised that WOOD was going 

to drop off Basilli Basilio GARCIA, and then WOOD was going to go meet the source of supply 

to get the narcotics. At approximately 4:14 p.m., WOOD advised the CSs that he would meet 

them in the area of Loop 410 and Marbach Road, in San Antonio, Texas. At approximately 4:25

intercepted a call between WOOD and Elia SANCHEZ, who was utilizing cellular telephone 

number (210)899-9831. SANCHEZ tells WOOD that she has 3 or 4 of them right now. WOOD 

asks SANCHEZ if she has the other ones or not. SANCHEZ concurs. WOOD tells SANCHEZ 

that they want all ten (10) of them. SANCHEZ reiterates that she only has 3 with her. SANCHEZ 

asks if WOOD wants to take the ones SANCHEZ has right now. WOOD said he doesn't know, 

but he is going to ask the guy and adds that the guy wants all ten (10) of them. SANCHEZ tells 

WOOD that she only has 3 here and adds that SANCHEZ can meet up with them for the rest, that 

it is up to WOOD. WOOD tells SANCHEZ that he is going to call the guy right now. SANCHEZ 

concurs. 

At approximately 4:50 p.m., surveillance agents were advised that WOOD wanted to meet the 

CSs in the 7000 block of West Military Drive. At approximately 4:58 p.m., Special Agent (SA)

intercepted a call between WOOD and Ella SANCHEZ, who was utilizing cellular telephone 

number (210)899-9831. WOOD tells SANCHEZ that it is good and SANCHEZ asks what is good. 

WOOD replies that the money. SANCHEZ asks if it is good money. WOOD concurs. SANCHEZ 

tells WOOD that she is going to see where SANCHEZ' people are. SANCHEZ tells WOOD that 

the guy is pulling up, then SANCHEZ says that she is going to check something real quick and 

states that no one is there. SANCHEZ asks WOODS if the guy is with WOOD right now. WOOD 

concurs. WOOD tells SANCHEZ that he wants the 3 and the rest later. SANCHEZ concurs.
