SYCAMORE – Bond was set Friday for two DeKalb residents charged with possession of crack cocaine.



Authorities recovered what they suspect was crack cocaine and marijuana from a home in the 800 block of Shipman Place in DeKalb after obtaining a search warrant. Two suspects who lived at the residence were arrested Thursday night.



Presiding Judge Robbin Stuckert set bond at $200,000 for Reginald T. Turner, 38. He has been charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana.



Jessica Grady, 40, also was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana. Stuckert set Grady’s bond at $50,000.



Northern Illinois University Police Sgt. Alan Smith confirmed Friday that Jessica Grady is the daughter of NIU Police Chief Donald Grady. Smith did not have a comment on behalf of the NIU Police Department, and attempts Friday to reach Chief Grady were unsuccessful. The number listed for Jessica Grady’s home was disconnected.



According to court documents, police found about 18 grams of suspected crack cocaine, which was packaged for sale. About 32 grams of marijuana also were found. About 17 grams of the crack cocaine was recovered from a purse located in Grady and Turner’s bedroom. Police also confiscated $1,400 in cash found in the residence.



DeKalb Police Lt. Gary Spangler said authorities had information about drug deals in the residence. He said police conducted several controlled buys from that residence before securing a search warrant Thursday afternoon.



Police executed the search Thursday evening while Turner was home. Spangler said Grady came home while police were executing the search.



During an interview, Grady admitted to police she had knowledge that Turner was selling crack cocaine out of their residence and that she had knowledge of the drugs recovered in the residence.



Spangler said it’s common for neighbors to suspect drug activity when lots of traffic is stopping by a residence for a short period of time.



“As someone who’s trying to look out for a neighborhood, seeing a lot of traffic in and out is probably the easiest thing for people to pick up on,” Spangler said. “If you let us know, we can go further with the investigation.”



Possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver is a Class 1 felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. Possession of marijuana with intent to deliver – a Class 3 felony – is punishable by up to five years in prison.



Possession of a controlled substance is a Class 1 felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. Possession of more than 30 grams of marijuana is a Class 4 felony punishable by up to three years in prison.
