Cocaine Sold From Oceanport Home; 2 Brothers Sentenced

OCEANPORT, NJ — A pair of brothers from Long Branch and Sayreville were sentenced to prison Friday, July 21 for selling cocaine and other drugs in this area.

And one of the homes from which they made drugs sales was in Oceanport, said Monmouth County Prosecutor Raymond Santiago.

On June 30, 2021, police from the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Narcotics Strike Force, the Monmouth County Sheriff, and Long Branch, Eatontown and Oceanport police executed search warrants on homes in Long Branch, Eatontown and Oceanport. From the homes, police seized more than 200 grams of cocaine, a 9 mm loaded handgun with a high capacity magazine, 450 grams of marijuana and approximately $80,000 cash.

Simon Anderson, 33, of Sayreville, was sentenced to ten years in prison and Paul Anderson, 31, of Long Branch, was sentenced to six years. Additionally, Keshon Fenter, 36 of Brick was sentenced to probation for conspiracy to distribute cocaine.

All three men previously pled guilty on March 30 of this year.

Prosecutors say that in the spring of 2021, Paul Anderson sold more than half an ounce of cocaine on four occasions. His brother in Sayreville "was supplying him with large quantities of cocaine," said the Monmouth County Prosecutor.

Fenter was also observed supplying cocaine to Paul Anderson for resale.
