YARMOUTH POLICE DETECTIVES SEIZE LARGE QUANTITIES OF FENTANYL AND CO***NE DURING SEARCH WARRANT

SOUTH YARMOUTH, Mass. – Yarmouth Police Detectives and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) conducted a knock and announce search warrant at a South Yarmouth residence Friday afternoon with the assistance of members of the Massachusetts State Police and Dennis Police Department.

Prior to executing the search warrant detectives observed Tara Cooke, 42, of Dennis, conduct a suspected drug transaction. Cooke was also the subject of a search warrant in Dennis on August 11th where she was arrested and charged with narcotics possession with intent to distribute along with her significant other.

Detectives executed the search warrant at the Seaview Avenue residence and located illegal narcotics throughout the residence. K-9 Gauge, a narcotics detection canine, was also utilized during the search and alerted to a large quantity of crack co***ne and fentanyl hidden in a large wicker basket.

Also found during the search was narcotics packaging and distribution equipment, including a vacuum sealer, vacuum bags, sandwich bags and a digital scale.

At the conclusion of the search, Detectives located and seized approximately 256 grams of Fentanyl, 179 grams of Co***ne, 32 grams of Crack Co***ne, and 5 counterfeit Adderall pills made from methamphetamine. Detectives also seized $2767 cash which Cooke stated was money she was trying to obtain to bail her boyfriend out of jail.

Tara Cooke was charged with Trafficking 200 Grams or More of Fentanyl, Trafficking 200 Grams or More of Co***ne, and Conspiracy to Violate Drug Law

Renee Fontaine, 55, of Yarmouth was charged with Trafficking 200 Grams or More of Fentanyl, Trafficking 200 Grams or More of Co***ne, Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine and Conspiracy to Violate Drug Law.

Jose Perez, 37, of Lawrence was charged with Conspiracy to Violate Drug Law.

All three subjects were arraigned on Monday in Barnstable District Court. Cooke was held on dangerousness, Fontaine was held on $2500 bail, and Perez was released.

INTERNATIONAL OVERDOSE AWARENESS DAY

August 31 is International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD), a global campaign to end overdose. Today, we take time to remember loved ones who have died from drug overdose and acknowledge the grief of those left behind.

Together, we can encourage support and recovery for everyone impacted by substance use and overdose.

Recognizing an overdose can be difficult. If you aren't sure, it is best to treat the situation like an overdose; YOU could save a life.

Administer naloxone (Narcan), if it's available, and call 911 immediately. NEVER leave the person alone.

Signs of an overdose may include:
* Small, constricted "pinpoint pupils"
* Falling asleep or loss of consciousness
* Slow, weak, or no breathing
* Choking or gurgling sounds
* Limp body
* Cold and/or clammy skin
* Discolored skin (especially in lips and nails)

Narcan can reverse an overdose from opioids, including he**in, illegally made fentanyl and prescription opioid medications

SCAM ALERT! 🚨

Recently, text messages like this have been popping up on phones across Massachusetts. These are from scammers attempting to get your money and information!

A random text soliciting payment, threatening arrest or property seizure and directing you to click a link to resolve a summons by paying cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, gift cards or sending banking information is a major red flag 🚩

District courts in Massachusetts will never send you a text message like this. In-fact, the District Court likely doesn't even have your phone number.

Legitimate summons' are issued through the court process. They are served in-hand, at your residence or sent in the mail and they are delivered by a person authorized to serve criminal/civil process.

Be alert! When in doubt, don't click, don't pay, and don't provide personal information.
