A Monessen man is charged with drug-related crimes after he allegedly sold five bricks of a drug mixture containing fentanyl to a confidential informant on several occasions in January.
The Trib reports that 38-year-old Justin Smith was arraigned Wednesday. Members of the Westmoreland County Drug Task Force said they worked with the informant who contacted Smith through Snapchat to set up meetings on January 6, 11, 13, 17 and 19. On each of the occasions, authorities said they provided the informant with cash that was exchanged with Smith for the drugs — 50 stamp bags each time.
Bail is set at $100,000. Preliminary hearings are set for August 7th and 11th.
