2 Facing Charges After Detectives Seize Large Amounts Of Drugs From Worcester Home

WORCESTER, MA —A man and woman in Worcester were accused of trafficking drugs after detectives searched an apartment on Thursday.

Timothy Campbell, 33, and Mary Swenson, 34, are facing a number of charges after detectives found drugs on their persons and inside an apartment, Worcester police said.

WPD detectives were conducting surveillance at a home on Fairfax Road, where police knew that Campbell, who had multiple outstanding warrants for his arrest for drug offenses and assault with a dangerous weapon, had lived.

At around 5 p.m., detectives saw Campbell exit the apartment with Swesnson. That was when Campbell was arrested for his warrants, and police said they found crack cocaine on him. They also found more rocks of crack cocaine on Swenson.

Campbell was evasive in answering questions, according to police. He denied any connection to his apartment and told them that a pair of house keys he had were not for the apartment. Police said that those keys were later used to unlock the door.

After getting a search warrant for the apartment, detectives recovered a large amount of drugs suspected to be cocaine and crystal meth in knotted bags, police said. The total weight of the cocaine and crystal meth was about 800 grams. There was also about 24 grams of fentanyl recovered, according to police.

Police said detectives also found a large capacity firearm with a defaced serial number, about 800 grams of white crystal and powdered substances in bags, counterfeit Adderall pills, drug packaging and processing materials.

Both Campbell and Sweson were charged with Trafficking Class B Substance over 200 grams (methamphetamine), Trafficking Cocaine over 20 grams, and a few firearm-related offenses, according to police.
