The CI was searched and then given an audio/video recorder and $100 in recorded buy money. The CI walked to the home of someone on Blaine Street and walked into the garage where they met with Johnson.

The CI gave Johnson the money, after which Johnson gave them a knotted plastic bag of “off-white” powdery substance. The CI left one minute later and was picked up by the sergeant and investigator. The CI gave them the bag of substance which was then given to BCI for analysis, where it tested positive as .84 grams of a fentanyl-related compound, a Schedule II controlled substance. The CI picked Johnson out of a photo lineup.
