TRENTON
– Acting Attorney General Paula T.
Dow and Criminal Justice Director Stephen
J. Taylor announced that a Camden man was
indicted today for allegedly possessing
a kilogram of cocaine that he intended to
sell.
According
to Director Taylor, Marvin Mosley, 35, of
Camden, was indicted by a Camden County
grand jury on charges of first-degree possession
of cocaine with intent to distribute and
third-degree possession of cocaine. The
indictment is the result of a joint investigation
by the Division of Criminal Justice, Camden
Police Department, Camden County Prosecutor’s
Office, Gloucester County Prosecutor’s
Office and New Jersey State Police.
On
July 6, 2009, the investigating agencies,
assisted by the New Jersey State Police
Technical Emergency and Mission Specialists
(TEAMS) Unit, executed a search warrant
at Mosley’s home in the 600 block
of Randolph Street in Camden. Detectives
allegedly found a kilo of powder cocaine
wrapped in a large plastic bag and approximately
4.5 ounces of crack cocaine in a knotted
sandwich bag. Both bags were in a toilet
in an upstairs bathroom.
First-degree
charges carry a maximum sentence of 20 years
in state prison and a criminal fine of $200,000.
The indictment is merely an accusation and
the defendant is presumed innocent until
proven guilty.
Deputy
Attorney General Jill S. Mayer presented
the case to the grand jury for the Division
of Criminal Justice Gangs & Organized
Crime Bureau.
The
investigation was led by Detective Peppi
Pichette and Detective Andrea Salvantini
of the Division of Criminal Justice Gangs
& Organized Crime Bureau and Detective
Mike Ruiz of the Camden Police Department.
