Clayton County Back on October 13, 2011, Clayton County Sheriff's deputies received a tip that meth was being manufactured at a home in North Buena Vista. When they arrived at the home on Country Lane, they smelled chemical odors consistent with meth manufacturing. Authorities searched the garage area, and found meth-making materials.
They seized the items and sent them to the Iowa State Crime laboratory for analysis. They issued arrest warrants for Oberbroeckling and Bendixen after the crime lab results came back positive for meth manufacturing.
While Oberbroeckling is in jail, Clayton County authorities ask that anyone with information on the whereabouts of Werner Bendixen III is asked to notify the Clayton County Sheriff's Department.
