A Burlington County grand jury has returned an indictment against Tareese Brown, 31, of Camden, which includes a charge of Strict Liability for Drug-Induced Death (First Degree).
The investigation began in September 2019 after officers from the Medford Township Police Department were called to Club House Lane in Camden for a report of an unresponsive 55-year-old female. An autopsy performed by the Burlington County Medical Examiner determined that the victim, Kimberly Bell, died of fentanyl and cocaine toxicity. The investigation revealed the drugs that caused the fatal overdose had been purchased from Brown.
The investigation also led to charges against Rashan Demby, 34, of Camden. Along with Mr. Brown, Mr. Demby was indicted for Possession of a Controlled Dangerous Substance (Third Degree); Distribution of a Controlled Dangerous Substance (Third Degree); and Conspiracy to Distribute a Controlled Dangerous Substance (Third Degree).
Brown and Demby have been lodged in the Burlington County Jail in Mount Holly since being arrested in February 2020.
