26 year old Kenneth Thompson of Atlantic City was sentenced to an aggregate term of five years in New Jersey State Prison after previously pleading guilty to second-degree possession of fentanyl with intent to distribute.
On November 18,the Atlantic City Police Department conducted a stop of a motor vehicle
driven by Thompson. A narcotics-sniffing canine positively identified to the odor of illegal
narcotics. Following his arrest, Thompson was searched and the police recovered 200 folds wax
containing fentanyl and $165.00. Through surveillance footage, police learned that Thompson
had exited his sister’s apartment prior to the motor vehicle stop. A search of that apartment led
to the recovery of approximately 1,175 wax folds in a closet.
