A Homer jury, on March 28, found 56-year-old Trevor Latimer guilty of Possession of Fentanyl with intent to distribute, possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, and two counts of possession of Methamphetamine following a seven-day trial.
Evidence presented at the trial showed that Latimer was an accomplice to Andrea Eden and Richard Falcone who moved to Homer in 2022 from the Lower 48 and started distributing fentanyl and methamphetamine that was brought from Colorado.
On June 24, 2023, Homer Police conducted a search of the apartment Falcone and Eden were living in and seized the largest stash of drugs in the history of the Homer Police Department.
The seizure included more than a pound of meth and more than 200 fentanyl pills as well as cocaine, heroin, and more than $10,000 in cash, gold coins, scales and empty plastic baggies. Latimer was one of several people who assisted Eden and Falcone in distributing the drugs that were stored in the safe in their apartment.
Latimer faces a possible sentence of 15 or more years in prison for his role, and is scheduled to be sentenced in June.

Wow! I hope they catch the rest of them. Homer is getting sketchier by the minute.
It isn’t just Homer, it seems to me that it’s a planned thing. All of our villages are being inundated with this fentanyl crap. Who is doing this? The two people from Colorado were paid by someone else to do this I’m thinking Maybe part of a huge drug ring? Is this being looked at as such? Or just on a person by person incident?
Don’t worry dunleavy is right on top of : never mind!?
