How A South Jersey Drug Ring Was Taken Down

William E. Cleary Sr. | CNBNews

GLOUCESTER CITY NJ (March 11, 2020)–At the bottom of yesterday\’s article

Major Drug Ring Operating in Gloucester City & Camden City is Busted

two links to the entire complaints that were filed against the suspects in the United States District Court,

Camden City was provided.

click to enlarge

One was labeled

DePoder complaint

the other was named the

Bell complaint

. The investigation into this drug gang began in January 2020 and concluded on March 9, 2020, cumulating with a raid on the DePoder home on Stinson Avenue, Gloucester City along with the arrest of the 17 other suspects.

The DePoder complaint details how the case was built using surveillance by FBI agents who were watching his South Stinson Avenue home, in Gloucester City. Besides surveillance video agents collected cell phone and text message conversations between Rocco DePoder aka \”Rock\” and his suppliers and customers.  Damaging step by step description of the exchanges are outlined from the moment one of DePoder\’s customers places an order on the cell phone or text message to the time the person picks the pills up from DePoder\’s house. FBI agents included descriptions of surveillance videos of DePoder driving the people with legal prescriptions to \”The Camden Pharmacy\” to have the script filled. The address of the pharmacy was not released.

Some of the controlled substances (CS) DePoder and his minions distributed included oxycodone, Adderall also known as \”ads\” or \”addies\”, Xanax, valium, clonazepam.

FROM PAGE 6 -8 of the 16-page indictment

From at least in or about January 2020 to in or about March 2020, Rocco DePoder (\”DEP0DER\”), who is not a doctor or pharmacist, ran a drug trafficking operation primarily out of his home in Gloucester City, New Jersey, aided and assisted by defendants Lolita Paynter (\”PAYNTER\”), Neal Thompson (\”THOMPSON\”), Marcus Rushworth (\”MRUSHWORTH\”), Robert Pratt (\”PRATI\”\’), Wayne Muse (\”MUSE\”), Kenneth Rushworth (\”KRUSHWORTH\”), Alexander Siaca (\”SIACA\”), Holly Clark (\”CLARK\”), and Michael DePoder (\”MDEPODER\”) (collectively, the \”Suppliers\”), who, as specific opportunities arose, agreed to or did assist in supplying DEPODER with quantities of controlled substances (\”CS\”), including oxycodone, Adderall, and Xanax, for DEPODER to distribute to others.

To further this drug trafficking operation, DEPODER and the Suppliers engaged in the· following conduct: ·

On or about January 10, 2020, DEPODER and PAYNTER traveled to a pharmacy to obtain a re-distribution quantity of Oxycodone for DEPODER. Specifically, on this date, PAYTNER telephoned DEPODER and made arrangements to meet DEPODE~ to sell DEPODER 60 OxyContin ER 60 mg tablets.

During ·the call, DEPODER asked, \”Wat, are you getting \’em?\” PAYNTER stated, \’\’Yeah,\” and DEPODER then agreed to pick PAYNTER up in his vehicle. According to law enforcement surveillance, later the same day, PAYNTER went to the pharmacy counter of a pharmacy in Camden, New Jersey (\”Camden Pharmacy-I\”) while DEPODER waited, with KRUSHWORTH, outside in his black GMC Yukon Denali SUV (the \”Denali\”). KRUSHWORTH left the Denali, walked down the street to a taxi cab, and left the area in the taxi.

A short time later, PAYNTER left the pharmacy and got back in DEPODER\’s Denali.

DEPODER then drove PAYNTER to a check-cashing business in Camden. PAYNTER went into the check-cashing business, remained for a short time, returned to the Denali, and then DEPODER drove her back: to Camden Pharmacy-I to obtain oxycodone to provide to DEPODER. According to pharmacy information, on this date, January 10, 2020, Camden Pharmacy-I. filled two prescriptions in the name of a senior citizen who appears to live with PAYNTER (\”Senior-I\”) for 60 OxyContin ER 60 mg ER tablets and 120 oxycodone-:-acetaminophen 10-325 mg pills.

FROM PAGE 9 and 10

On or about January 14, 2020, PRATT supplied a redistribution quantity of Oxycodone to DEPODER. Specifically, on this date, during a telephone conversation, PRATI asked if DEPODER was at DEPODER\’s home and told DEPODER, \”I got 45, you want \’em?\” DEPODER replied, \”Yeah, bring \’em over.\” During the call, DEPODER also told PRATT, \”Hey listen, I got them things too if you want \’em.\” PRATI responded, \”Yeah, I\’ll take them next week when I bring ya the other half.\”

According to pharmacy information, PRATT fills prescriptions, in his own name, on a monthly basis for 90 OxyContin 80 mg pills.

The FBI agent states, \”Based on my training and experience, the content of these calls, and my knowledge of the investigation to date, I believe that PRATT was referring to the two halves of his monthly prescription for 90 OxyContin 80 · mg pills. \”

According to law enforcement surveillance, a short time later, a car, registered to PRATT, arrived and parked in front of DEPODER\’s home, and a white male, believed to be PRATT, left the vehicle and entered DEPODER\’s home.

On or about January 16, 2020, MRUSHWORTH and DEPODER worked out the pricing of pills sold 1:Jy the operation, and DEPODER explained that \”I do this for a living.\”

Specifically, MRUSHWORTH sent a text message to DEPODER\’s telephone telling DEPODER \”we was wrong yesterday\’\’ regarding pill pricing, stating \”we did it as 9×3-27 no it\’s 3×30-90[.]\”

DEPODER and MRUSHWORTH then spoke on the telephone and discussed CS pricing. D~PODER told MRUSHWORTH, \”[i]t ain\’t no 30 times 3[,]\” instead, \”[t]hey\’re three for $10, Marc. There, they\’re footballs [which I believe, based on my training and experience and information from this investigation, is a reference to Xanax, because of the pills\’ oblong shape]. They\’re thr~e for 10. You got nine 10s in, in, in 90. Nine times three is 27. I do this for a living, bro. Thirty is 100. I, I\’ve been doing this, you know, for, for ages.\” DEPODER went on to explain that, \”[y]ou get 30 for 100-. Hey, listen, 15 is $50.\” · MRUSHWORTH told DEPODER, \”[y]eah, he didn\’t say nothing.\”·

As the conversation continued, DEPODER told MRUSHWORTH, \”and the other ones are three for 20.\” MRUSHWORTH responded, \”Daddy\’s selling something for $3 a piece, that\’s where I\’m getting the $3\” – referring to 8:Il another dealer as \”Daddy[.]\” DEPODER replied, \”Oh, oh alright. Yeah, he\’s sells \’emyeah he sells \’em \’cause you got that guy. He was selling them 2.50 apiece. · Two for five.\”

DEPODER asked MRUSHWORTH, \”So why are you selling them so cheap, Marc? He\’s paying three for 10 off of me. He\’s been doing that 9 forever, and that, that\’s what you\’ll pay anywhere you go. Downtown you\’ll pay $5 for one[.]\”· DEPODER added, that the· dealer that MRUSHWORTH referred to \”should be charging three for 10 because that\’s what he pays me …. · Remember, the- the other things are three for 20. Because there\’s six of \’em in them.\” MRUSHWORTH then told DEPODER that \”[h]e handed me $90[,]\” referring MRUSHWORTH\’s customer, so MRUSHWORTH. made a profit.

FROM PAGE 14 AND 15

· On or about February 29, 2020, PRATT solicits a sale by DEPODER of Oxy.codone. Specifically, on this date, PRATI sent a text message to DEPODER\’s telephone asking, \”Yo I\’ll gonna come mid-month if want them ?\” DEPODER replied, \”Ok I want me to hold 20\’s\” – \”20\’s\” is a term frequently used by DEPODER to refer to 2o·mg pill_s of oxycodone.

PRATI replied, \”Just 20.\” q. On or about March 2, 2020, DEPODER and PAYNTER travel to a pharmacy to obtain a re-distribution quantity of Oxycodone for DEPODER. Specifically, on this date, PAYNTER sent a text message to DEPODER stating, \”[g]ood morning Rocco do u have the $200 today might be able to get them today I text u when they open ok[.]\”

DEPODER replied, \”[w]hat about the $50 you owe me lo C this is one talking about every time I lend you money something happens to your checks and then you want me to buy the pills.\”

DEPODER and PAYNTER communicated several more times thereafter and made arrangements to meet. Later the same day, according to law enforcement surveillance, while driving the Denali, DEPODER picked PAYNTER up at her home in Camden and took her to Camden Pharmacy-I. PAYNTER entered Camden Pharmacy-I to obtain oxycodone to provide to DEPODER and then returned to DEPODER\’s waiting Denali.

According to pharmacy information, on March 2, 2020, Camden Pharmacy-I filled one prescription on behalf of Senior-I for 30 OxyContin ER 20 mg extended-release tablets. On or about March 5, 2020, THOMPSON arranged for DEPODER to sell Adderall to Individual-3. Specifically, on this date, during a telephone conversation, THOMPSON asked DEPODER, \”you got addas, Adderall\’s?\”

DEPODER responded, \”Yeah, 30\’s, that\’s all\” stating that · DEPODER only had 30 mg Adderall in stock. THOMPSON replied, \”Alright, and what do you want for them?\” DEPODER said, \”Fifteen[,]\” namely $15 per pill. THOMPSON advised, \”[a]lright, I\’m a tell her.\”

Later that evening, THOMPSON spoke to DEPODER again on the telephone, and the interception began with THOMPSON speaking to someone in the background, stating, \”[y]eah, this is different. ones, he only got 30\’s.\”

THOMPSON then spoke to DEPODER and said,_ \”[s]he wanna come out your way bro.\” THOMPSON then told DEPODER, \”[t]he lady with the Range Rover, you know the one buy the addies off you?\”

THOMPSON then corrected himself as to the make of the customer\’s car, stating that it was \”a Land Rover now.\”·

DEPODER gave THOMPSON the address of DEPODER\’s home and asked.\”how many she wants.\” THOMPSON told DEPODER \”7[.]\” Thus, THOMPSON arrang~d f~r DEPODER to sell an individual (\”Individual-3\”) 7 30 mg. Adderall pills.

Cleaning Services are Changing Because of COVID-19

City.

All announced that they’ve undergone a “deep clean” in recent weeks after discovering that a person infected with the novel coronavirus had been there.

They are just the tip of a pile of businesses and consumer gathering spots that say they are stepping up cleaning protocols.

While cleaning for the coronavirus is not that different from disinfecting for other viruses, like the flu or a common cold, industries are tailoring the cleaning in keeping with what makes sense for them. Public health officials suggest a few common steps can be used by both businesses and individual households: increasing the frequency of cleanings, using disinfectant products that federal officials say are effective, cleaning “high-touch” spots and making hand sanitizer readily available.

But there is no universal protocol for a “deep clean” to eradicate the coronavirus. Ridding it from smooth surfaces is easier than getting it out of upholstery or carpeting, for instance. And the key to eliminating the spread of the virus hinges on good hygiene practices.

“No cleaning protocol is perfect,” said Benjamin Lopman, an associate professor of epidemiology at Emory University in Atlanta. But combining cleaning with other public health initiatives, such as social distancing, “will act in concert hopefully in reducing the transmission of the coronavirus,” he added.

Deep cleaning is not a scientific concept and likely means something different to individual businesses or consumers. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued

guidelines for community facilities

that have had people with suspected or confirmed coronavirus disease, called COVID-19. It recommends that “high-touch” surfaces be disinfected daily.

But not all forms of

infection control

are the same. Disinfectants kill germs on a surface. Cleaning can remove ― but not necessarily kill — viruses. Sanitizing refers to lowering the number of infectious agents to a safe level through cleaning or disinfecting an area.

The Environmental Protection Agency has released a

list

of registered cleaning products that work against hardier germs and are presumed to be good options to fight the novel virus, said Karen Hoffmann, the immediate past president of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology.

“This virus is actually very sensitive to all the common cleaning and disinfecting agents out there, so that’s the good news,” said Hoffmann.

Office cleaning services Chicago

Delta Airlines now

uses foggers

to spray a mist of disinfectant on surfaces throughout the cabin on all trans-Pacific flights arriving in the U.S.

and flights from Italy landing in certain American airports, its website says.

It plans to extend the procedure to trans-Atlantic flights coming from areas with reported cases of COVID-19.

American Airlines

stated

that on international flights it is disinfecting items like glasses and cutlery before regular washing. And Southwest Airlines

said

it now uses a hospital-grade disinfectant throughout the plane during overnight cleaning instead of its former practice of using that only in select areas like the restroom.

The Carnival Corp., which runs Carnival Cruise Lines, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and others, said it is suspending cruises through April 9.  The company said it has amped up efforts to clean ships, including increasing the temperature at which bedding, napkins, towels and tablecloths are washed and using “

electro-static applications through specialized machines

” for deep cleanings to be conducted at night.

Schools are shutting their doors to students and also promising to clean their facilities to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

A spokesperson for the American Hospital Association said that while frequent cleaning is standard, hospitals are giving special attention to “high-touch surfaces such as in-room phones, TV/nurse calls, light switches and cords, handles, drawer pulls, bed rails, tray tables and bathroom fixtures.”

Sound Transit, which runs

a regional public transportation service

in the Seattle-Tacoma, Washington, metropolitan area, has increased the number of times it cleans its vehicles, a spokesperson said.

Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), the train and bus authority in the San Francisco Bay Area, is installing hand sanitizer dispensers at each of its 48 stations, the general manager

said in a recent board meeting.

While six Bay Area counties implement a

“shelter in place”

order for the next three weeks, BART

says

it plans to continue regular service while increasing disinfection of the trains and allowing for riders to maintain social distancing on platforms and in train cars.

WMATA, the public transit authority servicing the Washington, D.C., area,

has stepped up cleaning

and cut back train service as part of its pandemic response.

Gyms and workout classes — if they haven’t closed — are notifying members that they are cleaning handles and flat surfaces in common areas, moving equipment and workstations to create more space among clients and adding time to workout classes to ensure that every piece of equipment that is touched is wiped down after use.

Even Lime, an electric scooter rental company, sent an email to customers suggesting they consider disinfecting scooter handles before riding. The company also said

on their website

that it increased the number of times they clean and disinfect their scooters.

Cleaning may need to be geared to specific surfaces, Lopman said.

The coronavirus appears to live on surfaces for hours and perhaps up to days, CDC

stated

on its website. Still, the agency said it has not documented any cases of COVID-19 from a person touching a contaminated area. The virus appears to be spreading more often from person to person through droplets produced when someone coughs or sneezes.

Consumers should read the directions on cleaning products for information about how long it needs to be in contact with germs in order to work effectively. If those instructions list a time range, “you should use the longest contact time specified on the product label,” said Komal Jain, executive director of the Center for Biocide Chemistries at the American Chemistry Council.

If traditional cleaning products are in short supply in your area, there are other ways to prevent the spread of germs, said Hoffmann. Hydrogen peroxide can be used to clean surfaces. Soap and water, using some “elbow grease,” or a washing machine can remove germs as well, she said.

Items can also be taken outside and placed in the sun.

“Viruses don’t like UV light,” she said. “They don’t like sunshine.”

Guest Opinion: Another Anti-Catholic Joke

Bill Donohue | CNBNews Contributor

Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on another anti-Catholic joke:

We know Seth Meyers will never trash Muslims, but he can safely insult Catholics knowing we will not resort to violence. He won\’t trash Jews because he doesn\’t have the guts to do so, and he sure won\’t attack \”people of color.\” The most protected of all classes these days are the LGBTQXYZ people: he

would actually quit his job before mocking them.

Yesterday, we mentioned that Trevor Noah, David Spade, and the Onion libeled priests with \”jokes\” about the coronavirus. To show how creative the Hollywood writers are, Seth Meyers chimed in last night with one of his own. \”Despite Italy\’s national lockdown, Pope Francis today urged priests to visit coronavirus patients, and if there\’s one thing priests respond to, it\’s urges.\”

No reasonable person seeks to justify someone who, in the heat of a confrontation, lashes out against his adversary with a bigoted remark. But at least the context helps explain the outburst.

What do we say about someone who makes a gratuitous, totally unprovoked, sweeping statement about an entire class of people, maliciously assaulting them?

This is the state of anti-Catholicism in America today. Those who claim to be the most tolerant people in the country—the Hollywood elite—have more in common with white supremacists than they know.

“These are benchmarks we set to inspire hockey players of all ages to try and achieve great things while making it fun and positive,” said Zach Lamppa, Founder and World Record Holder of the Hockey Dads. “We want this to become a movement to let people, especially kids, find the fun in perfecting their hockey skills.

In November of 2018 Lamppa and Chorske, a Minnesota Hockey Legend set the World Record for longest hockey pass of 904 feet on the pristine early ice of Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis. Lamppa who grew up in Virginia, MN, and now resides in Detroit Lakes, MN said that record was just the start.

“Now that a few records have been set we are looking forward to seeing youth hockey players, moms, dads and even grandparents take aim at these numbers,” said Lamppa. “Records are made to be broken and we want to provide an avenue for lovers of hockey to make their mark.”

The Hockey Dads are encouraging players of all ages from all over the world to try their hand at breaking these recently set records and submit their video to the Hockey Dads

“For both players and parents. It’s all about having a positive attitude in the game of hockey” said Lamppa. “There are so many pressures we all face. The pressure of making a team, the pressure of getting ice time and the pressure of winning games. We want to create something that is simply about getting on the ice as a family and just find the simple enjoyment of the game.”
