A Washington man was arraigned on drug possession charges Monday in Lincoln County District Court.

Jeremy A. Gustavel, 50, of Everett pleaded not guilty to the offense while appearing via Zoom. His next court hearing will be July 15.

The case began on Aug.15, 2023, for county Sheriff’s Deputy Clint Heintz when EMS asked him to respond to a possible drug overdose at 1068 Corvette Drive, Eureka. A man, later identified as Gustavel, thought he was overdosing on Percocet or Valium possibly laced with fentanyl.
