RIPPON, W.Va. – According to Sheriff Pete Dougherty with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office (JCSO), 26-year-old James Snyder of Baltimore was the only death reported in connection to the All Good Festival.

Emergency medical responders with Ryneal Medical Transport said Snyder appeared to be suffering from a cardiac arrest when they made contact with him just before 11 p.m. on Saturday night.

Snyder was transported to Jefferson Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead 45 minutes later.

While investigators with JCSO are still waiting on a toxicology report, they said they found evidence of marijuana, PCP and heroin at Snyder's campsite, as well as evidence of intravenous drug use.

While Synder was the only festival-goer who reportedly died of an apparent drug overdose in connection to the All Good Festival, law enforcement agencies in Jefferson County said they uncovered almost $55,000 worth of illicit drugs off the streets last weekend.

"We had troopers that were assigned outside of the festival, and we had troopers that were assigned to work inside the festival grounds,” explained West Virginia State Police (WVSP) Captain Eric Widmeyer. “For a festival of that size with over 10,000 patrons, we had less than ten uniform troopers actually patrolling the grounds."

In context, WVSP had about one uniformed trooper for every 1,000 festival goers.

According to reports from both WVSP and the drug task force, officers made 20 times more drug arrests over the All Good Festival weekend in comparison to a ‘regular weekend.’ Widmeyer said that on average, WVSP troopers make about two to three misdemeanor drug arrests over the course of a normal weekend.

“We focused all of our attention on the actual sale and distribution of illegal drugs within the festival,” Widmeyer said.

“A lot of that was actually done by our task force, out of Berkeley County . They worked a lot of the controlled buys, and then our uniformed troopers were there to assist with the actual arrests of the individuals.”

Over the course of the weekend, drug task force agents arrested 31 festival-goers on 86 felony counts of distribution, and seized over $49,105 worth of illicit drugs from festival grounds.

That doesn't include the arrests and seizures made by state police troopers.

"On Saturday, a trooper in Jefferson County arrested an individual that had over $5,000 worth of molly in his vehicle,” Widmeyer said. “We also recovered a stolen pistol during a traffic stop…a stolen vehicle, and two fugitives."

Widmeyer said he would do one thing differently if the festival ever does make it's way back to Jefferson County .

"I would have more uniformed troopers in the crowd and actually on the grounds, because I would think that most law-abiding citizens would want to see more police officers in uniform at the festival,” he told WHAG while reviewing his troopers’ weekend arrests.

All Good Festival directors were concerned about having a safe event, and contracted local law enforcement agents to assist with security at no cost to tax payers.

As a result of local law enforcement efforts:

- WVSP wrote 306 warnings and 40 citations.

- WVSP made 46 arrests for possession misdemeanors.

- WVSP made 9 felon arrests for possession with intent to distribute.

- WVPS seized over $5,000 worth of molly, a drug that is considered a more pure form of ecstasy.

- WVSP recovered one stolen pistol within a half mile of the festival’s front gate entrance and one stolen vehicle.

- WVSP arrested two fugitives.

- Drug Task Force agents made 31 felony arrests on 86 counts of felony distribution.

- Drug Task Force agents seized $49,105 worth of illicit drugs from festival grounds.
