Oliverto Jordan-Negron was charged with heroin trafficking

Oliverto Jordan-Negron, 52, of 31 Cambridge St., second floor, was allegedly in his bedroom when the vice squad, with a warrant, searched his apartment around 9:40 a.m.
Sgt. Eric A. Boss said police found a loaded .380-caliber semiautomatic firearm under the mattress in the bedroom. A 7-month-old boy, the son of a woman who was also arrested in the raid, was taken into temporary custody by the state Department of Social Services, he said.
Neighbor complaints about people going in and out of the second-floor apartment of the three-family home prompted the drug investigation, led by Officer Kenneth J. Davenport. Police allegedly made several controlled drug buys from Mr. Jordan-Negron during a six-week investigation, Sgt. Boss said. Sgt. Boss said 38 grams of heroin, $1,600 in cash, a scale and packaging materials were seized in the raid. Mr. Jordan-Negron was charged with heroin trafficking 28 to 99 grams, possession of heroin with intent to distribute, possession of a firearm without a firearm identification card, possession of ammunition without an FID card, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and improper storage of a firearm. Jessica Sullivan, 33, also of 31 Cambridge St., second floor, was arrested and charged with being present where heroin is knowingly kept. According to court records, Mr. Jordan-Negron — who has aliases of Alexis Deleon and Julio Echevarria — was sentenced in September to 18 months in the House of Correction with four months to be served on a charge of heroin possession with intent to distribute out of Central District Court.
He was also charged with possession of a firearm without a FID card, cocaine possession and two counts of heroin distribution, for which he received four concurrent terms of four months in the House of Correction.
