Drug Arrest at Facility Where Autistic Man Died

Counselor at Woods Services arrested on charges of dealing cocaine

A long-time employee of Woods Services, the facility where an autistic man died after being left in a hot car for hours, was arrested for allegedly selling cocaine, police say.

Uron Brinson, 34, of Pennington Avenue in Trenton, N.J., sold an ounce of cocaine for $1,120 to an undercover person on July 26 in the parking lot of Woods Services, police say.

Brinson then sold 110 grams of cocaine for $5,000 in the same parking lot of the special needs organization on Friday Aug. 6, Bristol Township Police say.

Brinson has been an employee at Woods Services since July of 1998. Woods Services received much attention recently when one of its employees was charged with felony neglect and manslaughter after leaving 20-year-old Bryan Nevins, who suffered from autism, in a sealed van on a 97-degree day.

Nevins was found dead in the van -- inside which temperatures soared to about 120 degrees – on July 24.

Brinson is charged with two counts of delivery of cocaine and is being held on $200,000 cash bail.
