Police later executed a search warrant of his residence, at 1159 Lee Street, in the West Belmar section of the township, where quantities of cocaine, marijuana, prescription medications and a substance believed to be “molly,” an illegal substance similar to the illegal drug “ecstasy” were seized.

The investigation revealed Reynolds supplied a variety of illegal narcotics, predominantly heroin, to juveniles and young adults in the southern Monmouth County region.

Subsequent to being processed at Wall Township Police Department headquarters, Reynolds was lodged in the Monmouth County Correctional Institution, Freehold Township, in lieu of $160,000 bail, as set by Monmouth County Superior Court Judge Honora O’Brien Kilgallen.

Despite these charges, every defendant is presumed innocent, unless and until found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, following a trial at which the defendant has all of the trial rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and State law.
