A 32-year-old Cotati man used social media applications like Instagram and took payments through CashApp and Venmo to target juveniles for drug sales, Santa Rosa police said Friday.
The man was accused of the sale and trafficking of controlled substances in May after he was seen picking up a person at an access gate in the rear of a Sonoma County high school, police said.
