After numerous community complaints about a house known for narcotics activity in Palm Coast, Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly added 11 Raemoor Drive to the Sheriff’s High Intensity Target list. The FCSO Special Investigations Unit and FCSO SWAT team served a search warrant June 2, and Sheriff Rick Staly joined the team during the early morning wake-up call.

The residence has had 69 calls for service in the past two years for incidents including disturbances, overdoses, drug dealing, warrant arrests and a prior drug search warrant almost a year ago.

During the June 2 search, detectives located fentanyl, cannabis, methamphetamine, prescription medication without a prescription, used and unused needles and drug paraphernalia.

Six people were located inside the residence. Four were immediately arrested for numerous charges. The investigation is continuing on the others. 

“This has been a problem house for years and even after the search warrant we executed one year ago, they are still doing the same behavior and obviously haven’t learned their lesson,” Staly said. “Poison peddling in Flagler County is not acceptable. If you’re dealing drugs here, get out or you could be next the next person on the Sheriff’s High Intensity Target list.” 

The individuals arrested were:

  • Margaret Lynn Tillman, 38, charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to sell, possession of cannabis, and possession of drug paraphernalia. 
  • Samantha Marie Tillman, 35, charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of new or legend drug, and possession of drug paraphernalia. 
  • Glenn James Moratto, 34, charged with violation of probation. It was also discovered that Moratto had two active arrest warrants for violation of probation from previous cases. 
  • Christopher Ryan Avellar, 36, charged with possession of drug paraphernalia. 

Further charges are pending as the investigation continues.
