Jimmy Smith Cape Cod’s biggest dealer of cocaine and heroin

Jimmy Smith, 29, was charged with trafficking over 200 grams of cocaine and heroin, illegal possession of a large-capacity weapon and being an armed career criminal, among other charges.Barnstable police arrested Smith in October after an on-and-off investigation spanning 10 years.“Taking Jimmy Smith off the street made an enormous difference in the volume of cocaine that’s available in the Hyannis area,” Barnstable Lt. Sean Balcom said after today’s indictments, adding police believe it was Smith who was supplying mid-level drug dealers.Smith has a lengthy record of assault charges and has been convicted of drug distribution. He was also convicted on a manslaughter charge in the 1996 beating death of a New Bedford man. He used a Big Wheel children’s tricycle to strike the man in the head during an altercation on Fresh Holes Road, Barnstable police have said.Smith allegedly eluded law enforcement officials over the past decade by staying at different locations and avoiding direct contact with drug sales on the street, police said.The grand jury today also returned indictments against six of Smith’s alleged cohorts. Anita Dixon, 25, and Dominic Torres, 22, with whom Smith apparently shared a Sandwich residence, were both charged with trafficking over 200 grams of heroin and cocaine, and other charges. John Viust, 17, Tyrone Gomes, 23, and Matthew Amick, 29, were all charged with trafficking cocaine. Clifford Reed, 35, was charged with heroin trafficking.Dates will now be set for arraignment in Barnstable Superior
