Jobin was arrested in Los Angeles on Nov. 29. He was later released on $25,000 bond and ordered to appear for arraignment at the District Court in South Dakota in February, prosecutors said. Between late 2018 and early this year, Costa Mesa police identified and arrested four individuals who were suspected of distributing or receiving pills from Jobin in the area of Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach, according to department spokeswoman Roxi Fyad.
