Man jailed for trafficking fentanyl, kicking deputy in face
ORANGE PARK – A man trying to flee by kicking a Clay County Sheriff’s Office deputy in the face wound up in the Clay County Jail with a $335,013 bond after deputies found enough fentanyl to charge him with trafficking.
Zachary Thomas Clayton Cornett, 27, of Orange Park, also was charged with possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, battery on law enforcement, resisting arrest and tampering with evidence after he tried to run from CCSO during a traffic stop Aug. 14 on Blanding Boulevard.
Cornett tried to hide in a palmetto bush in a wood line. When deputies approached, they saw him trying to conceal the gun. Other deputies uncovered the fentanyl inside his car.
Once at the jail, additional charges for failing to appear for a DUI charge and driving with a suspended license were added.
