Fort Worth Man Sentenced to 20 Years After Jury Convicts Him of Fentanyl Trafficking

Defendant: Jacob Trimm

A Tarrant County jury has convicted 22-year-old Jacob Davion Trimm of Fort Worth of possessing fentanyl with intent to deliver, sentencing him to 20 years in state prison.

The case began on August 2, 2024, when Fort Worth police officers serving an arrest warrant for Trimm, tied to an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, discovered 2,000 fentanyl pills during the search. Trimm was taken into custody the following day and has remained in the Lon Evans Corrections Center ever since.

Jurors were told that just days before his arrest, Trimm, a documented gang member, shot a drug customer during a deal. At the time, he was already on parole for a prior drug conviction in Parker County. In June 2023, he was sentenced to 15 months in state jail for possession of a controlled substance.

Assistant District Attorneys Michael Ferry and Jack Darby prosecuted the case, and DA Investigator Sean Wheetley assisted with the investigation.
