On Tuesday, June 18, the Vermont State Police, in collaboration with the Vermont Drug Task Force, took action on a search warrant at 37 Reed St. in Springfiel, resulting in several drug-related arrests.
The operation was the culmination of a months-long investigation into the distribution of fentanyl and cocaine from the residence. Detectives utilized confidential informants who made multiple drug purchases from individuals at the address. The investigation identified Michael Spaulding, Jesse Morey, Douglas Marsh, Joshua Garcia, and Gianni Gamble as key suspects.
During the search, authorities discovered significant evidence of drug use and distribution, including over 10,000 bags of fentanyl (approximately 223 grams), more than 9 ounces of cocaine base (approximately 260 grams), and approximately 52 grams of crack cocaine. Two handguns, one reported stolen from New Hampshire, and additional ammunition were also recovered from a downstairs living area identified as belonging to Garcia and Gamble.
The suspects face various charges: Garcia and Gamble are charged with fentanyl and cocaine trafficking and possession of stolen property, with Gamble also facing a charge of being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm. Marsh, who had active arrest warrants for unrelated offenses, including possession of heroin and stolen property, faces charges related to the sale of cocaine. Spaulding and Morey are charged with drug sales.
Following their arrests, the suspects were processed at the Westminster State Police Barracks and subsequently jailed at the Southern State Correctional Facility in Springfield. Bail amounts were set as follows: Gamble at $50,000, Garcia at $25,000, Morey at $25,000, Marsh at $15,000, and Spaulding at $5,000. They are scheduled to appear in the Criminal Division of Vermont Superior Court in White River Junction at 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 19.
The Windsor County State’s Attorney’s Office is prosecuting the case. Authorities urge anyone with information about the investigation to contact the Vermont State Police at 802-722-4600.

Isn’t that special. More low lives teaming up with out of state entrepreneurs. Isn’t diversity great! This is what the left has hoped and prayed for. Now coming to fruition right before our very eyes.
It’s all about the inclusion and the watering down of the Vermont culture. No one is a racist for wanting to protect their culture and customs. If diversity brings crime, it’s best not to have it. Look at the EU that has adopted no borders. The influx of migrants from other cultures has almost destroyed the cultures of France, Italy and other member countries. The cultural mores of some countries as well as urban compared to rural will never blend. It’s a fact of life that most people want to be with people like them. Wherever diversity is prevalent the former culture is watered down. Other cultures do not blend, they bring theirs with them. See Minneapolis and the Mall of the Americas!
just another day at the vermont zoo//// now, how many of the above are tourists from another state/// we need the rest of the story////
Careful now…despite all the scary looking stuff on the evidence table, the use of the term “drug den” could make some people uncomfortable and possibly carry racial implications. Perhaps using “undocumented pharmacy” would be more acceptable to the average Vermont voter. (Springfield Vermont has become Springfield Mass.)
What better place for God’s rejects than Springfield? Where dealing Fentanyl, running a recovery center, prison labor and vegetable packing have replaced skilled manufacturing. Children are reminded to study hard in school so you can pack rutabagas and take advantage of Okemo’s non drug testing labor force.
As I remember, Springfield, VT used to by the Machine shop capital of VT. Skilled labor has been killed off by the current and past democrat/progressive governments. Now Springfield is another drug town as all of Vermont circles the drain waiting for the progressive voters to take us all to the big flush.
Springfield, Vermont, was once the Crown Jewel of the Precision Valley. And now it’s beginning to imitate the corruption and cesspool that is Springfield, Massachusetts, attracting the ‘Drug Dealing Tourists’ pictured above. Yes, we have the past and present progressive-liberals in our state government to thank for the decline. Vermonters deserve much better…
As a former resident of Springfield, the middle of the article below describes the cause of the decline of Springfield quite well. I am not sure what Dems and progressives had to do with it other than encouraging labor strikes that I recall in the 1970s. Family owned businesses got bought, lack of innovation, high costs, Japanese competition, are cited causes, etc. Search on decline of Springfield Vermont and the following article will come up. Inability to deal with drugs and crime, the poor business environment, and the encouragement of atheism contributing to lack of purpose and loss of fear of consequences, that is what Dems and progressives are good at and contributed to the further decline of Springfield after that major corporate bankruptcy in 2003.

Correction, bankruptcy was in 2002. Hard to copy the full seven days link.
