Danbury Man Charged With Narcotics Sale

Two-month investigation leads to multiple narcotics charges against a Danbury man living on Bayberry Lane.

Danbury Police charged Jorge Pagon, 45, of Bayberry Lane with eight narcotics charges after a two-month investigation.

          As a result of a several month long investigation regarding the illegal sales of narcotics, search and seizure warrants were issued by Danbury Superior Court, which authorized the search of Jorge Pagon, his vehicle and his residence located on Bayberry Lane.

    At about 6:23 p.m. Wednesday, members of the Danbury Police Department Special Investigations Division executed search and seizure warrants for Pagon and his vehicle as he was driving within the city. A short time later, the search warrant for his residence, Bayberry Lane, was also executed.  The searches revealed that Jorge Pagon was in possession of a substantial quantity of cocaine, heroin and money, all of which were seized as evidence.

     Based on the findings of the search and seizure warrants, Jorge Pagon was placed under arrest and transported to the Danbury Police Department where he is currently being held for a $100,000 bond.

Pagon was charged with two counts of possession of narcotics, two counts of possession of narcotics with intent to sell, two counts of possession of narcotics within 1,500 feet of a school and two counts of possession of narcotics with intent to sell within 1,500 feet of a school. He was also charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and operating a motor vehicle without a license.

This information was provided by the Danbury Police Department. A person charged with a crime is innocent until having been convicted in court.

g, Let's throw out some more numbers... Here is a site to look at:Read More http://www.sde.ct.gov/sde/lib/sde/PDF/dgm/report1/basiccon.pdf This is the Connecticut State Department of Education Bureau of Grants Management spreadsheet. It shows and compares what Danbury is paying per student compared to the rest of the state. Looking at the numbers, out of the 170+ districts in the state, Danbury pays the 8th LEAST amount per pupil. Out of the 10 districts in Connecticut that have over 10,000 students, Danbury ranks 2nd LOWEST in the state. This amount is about $3,000 less per pupil than the average of the state and the average of districts with 10,000+ students.

Good afternoon Jessica, Danbury plans to spend approximately $114,000,000 on teaching staff salaryRead More and benefits for the next school year per the school budget here - http://www.danbury.k12.ct.us/bbadmin/Budget/2012-2013%20budget.pdf the total budget is $121,000,000. Teachers, administrators, contracted professionals, staff enrichment programs, staff insurance, and the rest comprise about 95% of the school system budget. See staff cost summary on page 8 of the report. You'll also note our board of education plans to spend a bit more than 3 million dollars on supplies and materials plus a million on equipment. The budget represents a 5% increase from the prior year. On our district home page - http://www.danbury.k12.ct.us/ it says Danbury has 10,300 my calculator tells me that's about $12,000 per child in the district. With $12,000 per child, why are teachers paying for supplies? Hmm ... let me think ... 95% of the budget goes to staff salary and benefits for the long 185 day year .... I have a guess where the money goes. Do you?
