A Galloway Township man admitted to possession with intent to distribute heroin/fentanyl this week.
Matthew Lynch, 33, faces eight years in prison, under the terms of the plea agreement.
He was arrested June 21, 2022, after warranted searches led to digital scales commonly used for weighing drugs for sale, along with $1,482 in cash believed to be from drug deals.
An investigation found he sold more than a half-ounce each of heroin/fentanyl and methamphetamine from that May until June.
Lynch has just gotten out of prison March 13, 2022, on robbery and drug charges from 2016. He was on parole.
He was released on an ankle bracelet, but arrested again in Nov. 30, 2022, after he and a co-defendant were accused of brandishing a gun during a road rage incident.
Co-defendant, Kalief Lyons, was the one who had the gun, Lynch's attorney argued at a detention hearing at the time. Lyons has since pleaded in that case, BreakingAC confirmed.
Lynch's guilty plea included admitting to possession of 52 wax folds in that case.
Both men were sent back to prison that December as a result of their parole violations.
Lyons was released this Feb. 12, and is set to be sentenced in the gun case May 28.
Lynch remains in East Jersey State Prison in Rahway, Union County.
His sentencing is scheduled for July 9.
