On Wednesday night, (June 7th, 2017) David E Brady age 45 of Albany, New York was in Bonnaroo Pod 2 when Coffee County deputies allegedly saw Brady with items that appeared to be narcotics sitting under a tent. When deputies approached the man he apparently tossed the item or items behind him. When Brady stood up he allegedly had a bag of mushrooms hanging from his waistband.
Authorities searched the man and according to the arrest warrant, they found 37 pills made to look as if they were molly (synthetic drug that alters mood and perception), 22 bags of fake mushrooms, approximately 1,000 hits of fake acid, 20 bags made to look like cocaine and an incense stick made to look like black tar heroin.
The arrest warrant goes onto say that Brady told deputies that he was doing God's work by selling fake drugs.
Coffee County Sheriff's Department Investigator James Sherrill charged the man with two counts of counterfeit controlled substances.
It was later discovered that while checking Brady for warrants authorities found that the man was wanted in Franklin County, Arkansas on a felony bench warrant. The state of Arkansas will extradite the subject. He was then charged by Deputy Aaron Miller with being a fugitive from justice.
Brady's bond was set at $120,000 and he will appear in Coffee County court on August 11, 2017.
