Massachusetts nonprofit CEO who helps people clear criminal records now charged with distributing cocaine
[FoxNews] Javan Tooley was previously convicted of cocaine distribution in 2010 and served five years in prison

The CEO and founder of a Massachusetts legal nonprofit that specializes in criminal record expungement has been charged with distributing cocaine, the Justice Department said Friday.

Javan Tooley, 36, of Dorchester and Brockton, Mass., the founder and CEO of Adapt & Evolve, was charged with one count of distribution of and possession with intent to distribute 28 grams or more of cocaine base, federal prosecutors said.

Tooley appeared in federal court on Friday, where he pleaded not guilty.

On Sept. 10, 2025, Tooley allegedly distributed 100 grams of crack cocaine in Dorchester near his nonprofit. He is also alleged to have distributed the drugs in his car while a young child — around six or seven years old — was in the back seat.

"Tooley allegedly contacted a cooperating witness again, stating that he had additional crack cocaine to sell, and arranged to meet again on Sept. 23, 2025, at an area near the Roxbury District Court," the Justice Department said. Tooley was taken into custody upon his arrival and was allegedly found in possession of approximately 160 grams of crack cocaine.

Federal prosecutors said he targeted and recruited women, many of whom suffered from substance abuse disorders, to engage in paid sex for his financial benefit and to distribute controlled substances for him.

He allegedly used violence against his victims and gave them drugs. In addition, Tooley allegedly claimed to have connections to law enforcement and other powerful and influential officials through his nonprofit. He also allegedly coordinated drug transactions using the nonprofit’s phone.

In 2010, Tooley was convicted in Boston for distributing cocaine and sentenced to five years in prison. After his release from federal prison around 2015, Tooley violated the terms of supervised release on at least five separate occasions.

As a result, Tooley was sentenced to serve nearly two more years.

He now faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison because of his prior conviction and up to $8 million in fines.

#1  That’s some quality networking. I’ll have to check out his posts in LinkedIn.

#2  Since he's unlikely to be able to come up with $8 Million, life in prison would be fair.

Government Corruption
Is the Fix Already in to Protect James Comey?
[PJ] The swamp never wastes time protecting its own, and James Comey is no exception. The disgraced former FBI director, who has finally been indicted for lying to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding, is already benefiting from the familiar playbook: put the right judge in place, create an appearance of fairness, and then quietly shield him from any real accountability.

On Thursday, following the grand jury indictment, Comey’s case was “randomly” assigned to U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff. In 2021, Joe Biden nominated Nachmanoff, and the Senate confirmed him to the federal bench with a razor-thin 52-46 vote, as three Senate Republicans — Lindsey Graham, Susan Collins, and Lisa Murkowski — crossed over to support his confirmation.

If you believe that selecting Nachmanoff to preside over this case was truly random, then you haven’t been paying attention. Washington’s so-called “random assignments” seem to have a funny way of putting the most Trump-hostile judges on politically charged cases. Take Judge James Boasberg, a Barack Obama appointee, who just happened to land multiple Trump-related cases. Every single time, Boasberg ruled in ways that stretched or outright ignored constitutional boundaries to work against Trump. Yet, somehow, we’re supposed to believe these assignments are pure chance. Sure.

#1  It is almost humorous to listen to the media trying to spin the Comey Grand Jury indictment as a vindictive prosecution when they are using the fake evidence he used as the real evidence against him.

And yes the fix is in….the judicial rot is deep and even more difficult to fix

#2  Why does he smile and say, 'I'm innocent. Let's have a trial'?
Posted by: Bobby || 09/27/2025 8:07 Comments || Top||

#3  One commentator was encouraged by the fact that the Judge used to be a prosecutor and 'was probably the best pick of the Bidenistas'.

(that's a paraphrase, not a quote)

#4  I am ok with doing Comey first to test the system. He is an irrelevant joke. Even the left don’t take him seriously. He isn’t on CNN or MSWhatever. Bat Comey around like a piñata and see which folks inside the DOJ and FBI pull shenanigans and can them.

President Trump Says Others May Be Charged After Comey Indictment
[ZERO] President Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that other former officials may be prosecuted after former FBI Director James Comey was indicted for allegedly making a false statement during a Senate hearing.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) filed criminal charges against Comey on Thursday, alleging that he made false statements and obstructed a congressional investigation.

"It’s not a list, but I think there will be others," Trump told reporters as he was leaving the White House to partake in the Ryder Cup in New York.

He added that these people "were corrupt" and are members of the "radical left."

"They weaponized the Justice Department like nobody in history," he said. "What they’ve done is terrible. I hope, frankly, there are others because you can’t let this happen to a country."

#1  Hopefully moves to top of the indictment list. I believe he testified to Congress he had no idea about FBI agent numbers at J6.

Posted by: Besoeker || 09/27/2025 5:47 Comments || Top||

#2  They only have days, maybe a few weeks before Statute of limitations is reached of likely similar charges.


SIDE NOTE: The MSM is portraying these arrests as political revenge and not justice for the crimes that were committed.

Could it be the MSM Owners/Editors played a heavy role in helping the Biden/(L,S,D) lead Coup attempt, and some editors are looking at civil rights indictments themselves?


eg. Youtube fessing up recently, & Facebook fighting Biden People censorship weakly.

#3  Before Trump’s inauguration my expectation was that the CIA and FBI would be shutdown and replaced. I’m not seeing anything yet that indicate that they can be reformed or that true reformation is underway.

#4  /\ I’m not seeing anything yet that indicate that they can be reformed or that true reformation is underway.

Nor have I. The Klingon's control the country and have for decades. The Washington political establishment is simply a convenient cover for action. President Trump has an uphill battle on his hands. If he can keep us out of a war it will be most helpful.
