All of the above listed charges are felonies.

Police said they arrested Murray on August 29th after they wrapped up their investigation into the ongoing sale of fentanyl.

Police said Murray, who's a certified registered nurse, was arraigned and released. They said he was released because the charges are non-qualifying offenses. They also said when Murray was arrested, he was out on pre-trial release for other high-level narcotics charges.

Murray is due back in court at a later date.
