Frederick resident Jeffery Lynn Osborn Bowie, 30, was the target of a wide-ranging drug investigation spanning several agencies that led to the search and seizure of multiple warrants that led to more than $330,000 in drugs and cash being recovered.
Officers from multiple agencies executed warrants at homes in the 600 block of West Patrick Street and the 1400 block of Taney Avenue at approximately 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 20 following a lengthy investigation into a "major cocaine dealer operating in Frederick County."
As a result of the executed warrants, investigators seized:
- Five pounds of cocaine;
- Twelve pounds of marijuana;
- Seventy grams of crack/cocaine;
- Numerous oxycodone pills;

“This was a huge win for law enforcement today and more importantly, for our community,” Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins said. “As a result of great teamwork, we were able to effectively identify and dismantle a major drug operation within Frederick County.
“This arrest is another example of the exemplary work this agency consistently does to remove these lethal drugs off our streets.”
