Redmond Woman Accused Of Trafficking Fentanyl

PRINEVILLE, OR -- A Redmond woman is accused of trafficking drugs from Portland into the High Desert, following a surveillance operation conducted by the Central Oregon Drug Enforcement team. Detectives say 41-year-old Christie Dillman brought methamphetamine and fentanyl into the region from the Portland-metro area.

She was arrested during a traffic stop in Crook County last week. CODE says K-9 “Bonnie” helped lead detectives to a substantial amount of drugs and money in Dillman’s car. The drugs included counterfeit Oxycodone pills made of fentanyl. 

At the same time, agents searched Dillman’s home on SW Canal Blvd. in Redmond, and say they found more fentanyl tablets, packaging materials and two loaded guns.

Her teenage daughter was also home at the time, but was released at the scene and referred to DHS Child Welfare.

Dillman was booked into the Crook County Jail on charges of Unlawful Possession and Attempted Distribution of Fentanyl, Unlawful Possession and Attempted Distribution of Meth, and Felon in Possession of a Dangerous Weapon. She later posted bail and was released.
