Georgia man imprisoned after cocaine found in Bluetooth speaker

A Georgia man was sent to prison after cocaine was found in a Bluetooth speaker, while a Jamaican national connected to the case is on an ICE hold.

The case also involves federal immigration custody through U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The Jamaican national’s immigration status means the person may remain in custody under an ICE hold after the criminal case reaches its next stage.
