Montgomery County Pct. 4 Constable’s Office reportedly shuts down drug operation in New Caney

Joshua Composano is facing more drug charges after a second arrest in two months' time by the Montgomery County Pct. 4 Constable's Office.

For the second time in two months, deputy constables with the office of Pct. 4 Constable Rowdy Hayden have arrested Joshua Camposano, 19, and Ariel Garza, 21, both of Houston, on multiple felony charges of Manufacture and Delivery of a Controlled Substance including cocaine and ecstasy.

The pair was first arrested on March 21, 2019, in the 21000 block of Mexican John Road in New Caney, where authorities served a warrant on a home in which they were living. Inside the home, deputy constables allegedly found cocaine, ecstasy, marijuana and hundreds of prescription pills. Authorities also seized $900 in cash along with other evidence.

For that arrest, Camposano and Garza were each charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 1 With Intent to Deliver, Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 2 With Intent to Deliver, Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 3 With Intent to Deliver and Possession of Marijuana. Camposano also was charged with Money Laundering.

“In early May, Constable Rowdy Hayden’s office received word once again that both Camposano and Garza were selling narcotics but out of a different location, this time at an apartment in the 25000 block of Loop 494. Another investigation led to another search warrant that was executed on May 17,” said Lt. Jim Slack in an emailed statement.

Inside the apartment, deputy constables reported discovered 14 grams of cocaine, 300 ecstasy pills, 100-plus alprazolam pills and approximately 10 ounces of marijuana. The most recent charges are for Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 1 With Intent to Deliver, Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 2 With Intent to Deliver, Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 3 With Intent to Deliver and Possession of Marijuana.

“Both subjects are currently in the Montgomery County Jail. Constable Rowdy Hayden’s Office has been a great leader in the effort to crack down on illegal drugs and other quality-of-life crimes in east Montgomery County and will continue these efforts doing everything they can,” Slack said. “Constable Hayden urges residents to utilize the ‘contact’ portion of the Constable Office’s website where anyone can provide tips and information at any time, 24/7.”
