Teacher arrested for fentanyl trafficking, deputies say
An instructional coach for Seminole County Public Schools was arrested over the weekend under suspicion of trafficking fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid.
Shavon Pearson – who works at the 9th Grade Center, near Seminole County High School – was booked into jail on a charge of trafficking at least four grams of fentanyl on Saturday afternoon, according to the arrest affidavit.
She has since been released from jail on a $15,000 bond, records show.
In a statement, Sanford police said dispatch received a 911 call on March 25 around 1:30 a.m. about a female driver allegedly pointing a firearm at them. Officers located the vehicle around Academy and Carver avenues and conducted a traffic stop.
Police said Pearson was driving that vehicle.
During a search, police found eight grams of Fentanyl, a loaded 9mm handgun, and a gram of cannabis in her vehicle. Pearson did not talk with officers and asked to speak to an attorney.
However, while on the phone with a family member, Pearson reportedly said she had been set up, according to the police report.
