One suspect, Shelley Renee Crider, was arrested and charged with a litany of drug offenses. Some included, but weren’t limited to, three counts of sale of methamphetamine within 1,000 feet of a church, possession of meth within 1,000 feet of a church, and possession of drugs without a prescription.
Sheriff Bill Leeper said that “thanks to this investigation, we are able to get more dangerous drugs off our streets and away from our community.”
It’s been a busy 2024 for NCSO.
Action News Jax first reported in December 2022 on a “nuisance’ home in Fernandina Beach and the push from neighbors to see a cleanup.
Over two years later that same home was shut down for being a notorious drug house.
