On Sept. 16, an Anchorage man already charged with murder plead guilty in federal court to selling crack cocaine.

According to court documents, 21-year-old Marquinn Jones-Nelson sold more than 44 grams of the drug in Dec. 2010 and January of this year.

Most recently, he was indicted by the State of Alaska for the March 24 murder of 19-year-old Devante Jordan.

Prior to his death, Jordan had been a suspect in the murder of 17-year-old Desirae Douglas, who was killed during a gunfight at a 2009 East Anchorage house party.

Jones-Nelson faces up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $5 million for the drug charge.

Dude, L.A. isn't a drug invested state. Maybe you meant drug infested state? But even that grammar is dumb. Maybe you meant "This piece of criminal trash is another man brought to Alaska trying to get a chunk of that 'free money' like so many others from California or another drug infested states. BUILD A WALL! KEEP EM OUT!"
