McFadden Chataigne Of Boca Raton Arrested, $398k Bond

BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) — PBSO arrest the 2nd suspect they say has been selling counterfeit drugs containing fentanyl in the Sandalfoot area of West Boca Raton.

As Boca Post exclusively reported back in July, PBSO nabbed Jude Francois for selling Fake Oxycodone Containing Fentanyl.

Months after his cousin’s arrest, PBSO deputies have now apprehended and charged McFadden Chataigne, who was allegedly selling narcotics out of the apartment complex on Sandalfoot Boulevard in West Boca Raton.

In March of 2022, undercover agents with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office attempted to apprehend Chataigne; however, he was able to evade capture. That was after the agency conducted several controlled buys from Chataigne who provided them with counterfeit narcotics which contained Fentanyl.

  • OPIUM OR DERIV-POSSESS – WITH INTENT TO SELL ETC SCHEDULE V
