AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF
CRIMINAL COMPLAINT

I, Travis Coyman, being duly sworn, hereby state as follows:

Introduction and Agent Background

1. Iam a Special Agent employed by the Drug Enforcement
Administration (“DEA”) and have been so employed since September of 2018. I
have been assigned to Tampa District Office since May of 2024. Prior to my
assignment in Tampa, I was assigned to the Lafayette, Louisiana Post of Duty in
the Western District of Louisiana. I have had specialized training and experience
in controlled substance investigations, and I am familiar with the manner in
which controlled substances are manufactured, transported, packaged, marketed
and consumed. I have received training in the identification of all types of
controlled substances by sight and odor. I have made numerous arrests for
violations involving such substances. In the course of my employment, I have
become familiar with the ordinary meaning of controlled substances slang and
jargon, and I am familiar with the manners and techniques of how controlled
substances are manufactured and transported.

2. I completed the DEA Basic Agent Training Program at the Justice
Training Center in Quantico, Virginia. I am familiar with investigations of drug
trafficking organizations, methods of importation and distribution of controlled
substances, and financial investigations. I have participated in over 100 narcotic

investigations either as a case agent or in a supporting role. I have debriefed
Case 8:26-mj-01260-SPF Document1i Filed 02/08/26 Page 3 of 7 PagelD 3

numerous defendants, informants, and witnesses who have personal knowledge
regarding narcotics trafficking organizations. Additionally, I have participated in
many aspects of drug investigations, including physical and electronic
surveillance, arrests, analysis of telephone billing records for telephones used by
narcotics traffickers, and authored/assisted in court ordered wiretaps, both federal
and state. I am familiar with narcotics traffickers' methods of operation,
including the manufacture, sales, distribution, storage, and transportation of
controlled substances including, but not limited to, heroin, fentanyl,
methamphetamine, and cocaine. I am familiar with the collection of money
proceeds from narcotics sales and trafficking and methods of money laundering
used to conceal the nature of the proceeds from such illicit activity. I have been
involved in investigations regarding the unlawful possession and distribution of
controlled substances, as well as related money laundering statutes involving the
proceeds of specified unlawful activities and conspiracies associated with money
laundering and drug trafficking crimes, in violation of Title 21, United States
Code, Sections 841(a)(1), 843(b), 846, and Title 18, United States Code, Sections
371, 1956, 1957.

3. I am authorized to investigate violations of laws of the United States,
including violent crimes and narcotic offenses, and to execute warrants issued
under the authority of the United States. Iam currently assigned to the DEA
Tampa Division. During my employment as an DEA Special Agent, I have

participated in numerous investigations which have resulted in the arrests of

Case 8:26-mj-01260-SPF Document1 Filed 02/08/26 Page 4 of 7 PagelD 4

numerous individuals and the seizures of currency, financial ledgers, firearms,
controlled substances, and indicia of controlled substance trafficking. During the
course of these investigations, I have conducted or participated in physical and
electronic surveillance, and I have conducted numerous debriefings of witnesses,
informants, cooperating defendants, and other individuals cooperating with the
United States. I have executed or assisted in executing numerous search warrants
resulting in the seizure of firearms, narcotics, narcotics records, and financial
documents.

4. I submit this affidavit in support of a Criminal Complaint charging
Jarvis ROGERS (“ROGERS”) with Possession of a Firearm as a convicted felon
in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1).

PROBABLE CAUSE

5. On February 6, 2026, DEA and Tampa Police Department members
executed a federal search warant at 1115 E Twiggs St., Apartment 1111, Tampa,
FL (the “TARGET LOCATION”). As law enforcement executed the search
warrant, ROGERS was observed departing the residence and immediately
detained.

6. During the search of the TARGET LOCATION, law enforcement
located the box to a Glock firearm (with a listed serial number) as well as
narcotics residue and further evidence of narcotic distribution.

7. More specifically, law enforcement located 10 Hornaday 9mm

bullets/rounds, inside a Glock firearm box (with listed serial number CEEB257)

3
Case 8:26-mj-01260-SPF Documenti Filed 02/08/26 Page5of7PagelD5

in the bedroom closet of the TARGET LOCATION. Additionally, multiple
kilogram wrappers with cocaine residue, a scale, plastic bags, a money counter,
and a large quantity of US currency were located.

8. Additionally, throughout the TARGET LOCATION, including within
the bedroom, agents located multiple pieces of mail addressed to Jarvis ROGERS
with the address of 2446 36 St. S. An additional search warrant was conducted at
2446 36 St. S., which resulted in the location and seizure of the Glock firearm
(SN: CEEB257). The Glock firearm was loaded with Hornady rounds similar to
the rounds located at the TARGET LOCATION. Nobody was present at 2446 36
St. S., St. Petersburg, FL during the execution of the search warrant. Through the
previous investigation, agents are aware that ROGERS possessed the key to 2446
36 St. S., St. Petersburg, FL. and appeared be in complete control of the
residence. This is also the listed address on ROGERS’ Florida identification card.

9. In the TARGET LOCATION, agents located numerous pairs of shoes
and clothing that appeared to be of a size consistent with the size ROGERS
would wear. The bed in the room appeared to be approximately a king-size bed
and appeared to be recently slept in.

10. In addition to the clothing and firearms, law enforcement located
scales, plastic bags and white powder. Also, through my training and experience,
I am aware that narcotics distributors commonly use firearms to protect their

distribution locations.

11. On February 6, 2026, DEA SA Bill Grimmer conducted an
examination of the firearm and ammunition located in the TARGET
LOCATION and 3446 36 St. S.

12. Based upon that examination and research of the above-described
weapon, as well as his knowledge, training, and experience, SA Grimmer believes
the above-described weapon is a firearm as defined in Title 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(3).
Further, SA Grimmer believes the above-described firearm and ammunition was
not manufactured in the State of Florida. Therefore, the firearm and ammunition
would have had to travel in or affect interstate or foreign commerce prior to its
recovery in the State of Florida.

13. Ihave investigated ROGERS’ criminal history. ROGERS has felony
convictions on his criminal record and is therefore prohibited from possessing
firearms or ammunition under 18 USC § 922(g). Specifically, on May 15, 2014,
ROGERS was convicted of conspiracy to traffic in cocaine, which is a felony, in
the Sixth Judicial Circuit in and for Pinellas County Florida.

14. DEASA Travis Coyman conducted a search of the Florida Office of
Executive Clemency for ROGERS, which indicated there was no record of
ROGER’s civil rights being restored.

15. Based on the facts above I believe there is probable cause that on
February 6, 2026, ROGERS was a convicted felon and possessed ammunition
and a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) within the Middle District of

Florida.
