Good job MPD! Thank goodness this loser will be tried in a real court in Madison County.

So, it is illegal to sell fake illegal drugs?
Or should the consumer protection agency be involved as the consumers are not getting what they paid for.
Jeesh, drug dealers just can't be trusted anymore.

Seems like a heads up to the drugies that there is some bad sh** on the street.

And to think I thought this was going to be about a water line.

Who died in St. Regis on Nov. 25?

Noah Smith, 20 years old, died on November 25th in Madison.

Drug dealers should only get warnings 3 times after that should be locked but the user needs to get locked up for buying it. But in this case drug dealer sold fake stuff he need to go away.

Here is his obit: https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/clarionledger/obituary.aspx?pid=190846096

@9:10 PM, There is a new surface sewage feature on display at Kimwood and Northside. Head on over there to see a sterling example of Antar's radical leadership.

The boy who died was Jamesie Smith's son. William Smith (RE attorney) nephew.

How was he charged with selling a controlled substance if it was fake?

MS Code § 41-29-139(a)(2):

(a) Except as authorized by this article, it is unlawful for any person knowingly or intentionally:

(2) To create, sell, barter, transfer, distribute, dispense or possess with intent to create, sell, barter, transfer, distribute or dispense, a counterfeit substance.

Nothing fake at all about that pain medication (Fentanyl). It's very, very real. And potentially deadly. Do yourself and your kids a favor and google it.

As soon as I saw that all-gray color scheme (and the underwhelming entrance design), I knew that St. Regis was going to attract problem people. Ugly entrance leads to ugly houses selling to people with ugly problems.

Oh, well, maybe Jeremy Jamal Booker should get a medal, for taking out some of our trash.

Wondering what kind of blithering, worthless jackass it takes to post something like 1:28 above.

The deceased is a 20 year old young man who made the worst (and final) mistake of his life.

1:28am. I personally know this family and they are hurting. How can you make a comment like yours? You are a sad and pathetic person. You are the trash!!!!!

Hey 1:28am. After reading your idiotic post, I wish I could meet you. Do you have any friends or family that have fought addiction? Are they trash? But then I see where you made the post at 1:28am which tells me that you are probably a lonely pathetic person that lives in his parents basement. Am I right?

3:29, not sure where you got this misinformation about Fentanyl being in these counterfeit pills, probably just making assumptions based on dateline or fox news reports. Xanax is not a pain medication, it's a benzo. The counterfeit pills in question are reported up to this point to be Clonazolam, which is a designer benzo that has not been widely studied. Maybe you should do yourself and your family a favor and be better at googling.

My understanding is that it was an opioid (hydrocodone, etc) overdose. The kid was trying to sleep and had come back home to get help.

As to comments and rumors, there are people on this thread that know the family and father. They know how to get in touch with the father - and, if anyone wants to speak personally to him, he will oblige. There are teachable moments that come along for us all. This is/was definitely one of those moments.
