OAKLAND — A Richmond man with a history of arrests for alleged drug dealing is in federal custody facing up to 20 years in federal prison after federal and local authorities raided his home, court records show.
Reginald Lee Weaver, 57, was charged with possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and is being held at Santa Rita Jail on a no-bail federal hold. The criminal complaint says the charges stem from an undercover investigation by the Marin County Sheriff’s office, which culminated with a two-pound drug deal at the San Pablo Lytton Casino last July.
An undercover sheriff’s detective used $2,800 provided to him by the DEA to buy two pounds of methamphetamine from Weaver on July 17, the criminal complaint says.
On Aug. 19, police and the DEA raided Weaver’s Richmond home and recovered what they say was $300,000 worth of drugs. This includes 27 pounds of methamphetamine, six-and-a-half pounds of cocaine, two-and-three-fourths pounds of fentanyl, and 11 pounds of marijuana, a Marin County Sheriff news release says.
In 2021, Weaver was charged after an informant told Richmond police he and another man were selling heroin and methamphetamine at Andy’s Donuts in Richmond, court records show. Weaver was ultimately prosecuted for violating his parole in a 2019 drug dealing case, where police caught him with a pound of methamphetamine, an AK-47 assault rifle, two pistols, and 10 grams of cocaine, court records show.
