23 Arrested In Drug Busts In South Jersey
September 3, 2004

An operation that distributed cocaine, marijuana and steroids and promoted gambling in far southern New Jersey was broken up when 23 people were arrested. Devin B. Reilly, 30, of Pittsgrove, and Jamal I. Herrin, 32, of Clementon, were identified as leaders of an operation that was the subject of six months of investigation.

Both face multiple charges and were being held on bail of $500,000. Reilly was arrested on Aug. 26. Police said he led them on a car chase that started in Franklin Township, Gloucester County, then abandoned his car and dove into Malaga Lake, but that police plucked him from the water.

At the time, charges against him included aggravated assault and reckless endangerment. Now, he faces drug and conspiracy charges as well.

The 21 others arrested in raids Thursday were being held on bail ranging from $15,000 to $250,000. In searches at 17 locations, authorities said they seized cocaine, an indoor marijuana lab, more than $20,000 in cash, anabolic steroids, syringes and needles, three handguns and five cars.
