A drug dealer was arrested for supplying drugs that led to an overdose death in Jacksonville, according to local law enforcement.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office investigation began months ago, after a 61-year-old man passed away from an overdose. Over a nine-month period, the JSO Overdose Investigations Unit worked tirelessly to identify who supplied the victim with the drugs.
Detectives named 44-year-old Sean Coss as the suspect.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Overdose Investigations Unit conducted a search warrant on Coss’ home in the Deerwood area. Detectives found 28.8 grams of Powder Cocaine, 19.3 grams of Crack Cocaine, and 875.3 grams of Marijuana. We also found four handguns and $1,565 in cash.
According to local law enforcement, Sean Coss was arrested for Manslaughter as well as several different drug possession charges and booked in the Duval County jail in North Florida.
“Drug dealers be warned: if you’re selling drugs in our community, we will put an end to it. If your drugs lead to someone losing their life, we will hold you accountable for their death,” the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office posted.
