drug death
A Knoxville woman has been charged with murder in the suspected drug overdose death of a local man. Jessica Nicole Gambrell, 34, was served an arrest warrant Sept. 13 by deputies with the Loudon County Sheriffs Office and transported to the Loudon County Jail.
According to an affidavit from LCSO, the offices narcotics
unit responded June 16 to a report of a man who died
following a possible drug overdose. Investigators found a
syringe and other items in the mans pocket.
The mans cellphone was
collected and data extracted. A text conversation June 15
between the man and another number led investigators to
Gambrell. The text conversation begins at 6:04 p.m. when
Gambrell responds asking if anything was needed. Texts back
indicate the man has 30 if there was a good bit for him,
and Gambrell affirms.
According to the report, no other messages indicate conversation with anyone regarding drug activity. Investigators were told by a family member of the man that he returned home at 8 p.m. An autopsy has cause of death listed as fentanyl overdose, and the toxicology report shows fentanyl as the only illicit drug in the mans system.
