Meridian, MS – A Meridian man has been found guilty of operating a massive drug trafficking operation out of his home, distributing counterfeit pills laced with deadly substances like fentanyl, methamphetamine, and cocaine into communities in Mississippi and Alabama.
167 Pounds of Drugs Seized from Home
According to court documents, Jabreon Deshon Mosley, 34, was convicted on Friday of three serious charges: possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, fentanyl, and cocaine. The conviction follows a major investigation into a high-volume drug operation located inside his Meridian residence.
Authorities say a search warrant executed at Mosley’s home in January 2024 led to the discovery of:
- 87 pounds of methamphetamine
- 45 pounds of fentanyl
- 35 pounds of cocaine
Alongside the drugs, officers recovered two pill press machines, 13 firearms, and one suppressor.

Between October 2023 and January 2024, Mosley was running a counterfeit pharmaceutical pill operation, according to trial evidence.

These pills were later distributed on the streets of Meridian and even reached parts of Alabama, fueling concerns over rising overdose risks in the region…
