Not mentioned in the title: he was snorting confiscated fent.

Also this is a cop from the town all the Proud Boys who came to Portland in 2020 live in.

From the article

Kelly’s death came hours after a local drug seizure, according to records obtained by OPB. A Battle Ground police officer that morning found an unoccupied vehicle with guns and narcotics sitting in plain sight. After the seizure, the officer turned the guns and narcotics over to Kelly.

“The evidence seized in this case was processed and listed for ‘destruction’ by Sergeant Kelly,” the officer wrote in his report.

Later that day, Kelly was alone in his office for roughly two hours before another Battle Ground officer discovered the sergeant standing and bent over his desk. The officer said Kelly’s breathing was labored.

A small pile of white powder — later confirmed to be fentanyl — rested bare on a notepad on Kelly’s desk. Investigators noted an “extended line” of powder on the desk and found a straw of rolled-up white paper that was “consistent with what would be used to snort or inhale narcotics.” There was fresh vomit near the computer keyboard, they noted.>>>

I'm sorry, can you go back to the part where he's called a "Battle Ground Officer"

Town's called Battle Ground, Washington.

Wait, the one a ways north of Portland? I was thinking of, like, the far side of the rain shadow when they said "southwest".
