One Enters Plea In ‘Anything For A Buck’ Undercover Operation
December 1, 2011
An Escambia County man pleaded guilty Wednesday afternoon to 24 federal charges stemming from the recent “Anything for a Buck” undercover operation.
Jacobi F. Foster, age 28 of Pensacola, entered the plea on charges that he possessed over 30 firearms, including multiple assault rifles, and sold them to undercover law enforcement. He also pleaded guilty to distributing cocaine to undercover agents four times while selling the firearms.
Because of his felony criminal history, Foster faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced by Chief United States District Judge Casey Rodgers in February 2012.
Foster was one of 75 Escambia and Santa Rosa county residents arrested during the joint federal and state operation. Undercover agents and investigators purchased 270 firearms, including handguns, rifles, assault rifles and sawed-off shotguns, and more than 2,600 rounds of ammunition. In over 100 individual drug deals, they also obtained illegal drugs, including cocaine, marijuana, heroin, hydrocodone, xanax, and oxycodone.
