Wednesday, The Probable Cause was able to obtain the documents detailing a plot to kill a confidential informant that the alleged drug dealer Jason Bridges, 45, wanted gone. The first way was to plant a “hot shot,” an extremely potent fentanyl drug mix of a “G” or gram(s), hoping that the fentanyl would kill the confidential informant (CI), but the death would look like a drug overdose, according to a probable cause affidavit written by Officer S. Schmieman.

The Indiana State Police contacted the FWPD on March 12 to say it had a DNA match or “hit” from CODIS.
