Narcotic Task Force members who zeroed in on Anderson German-Javier, 27, as part of an investigation also found small amounts of heroin and fentanyl in the electronically-operated “trap,” Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.

They charged him with money laundering and drug possession and released German-Javier pending a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack.

The cash, meanwhile, was seized for forfeiture.
