(Crohn) – Public Prosecutors accused the commander of the Venerable Fire Fire Department in San Jose of drug the fire department. Mark Molim, 45, from Gelry, stole the pain relievers and sedatives from 17 fire and truck stations, according to public prosecutors.
Molim will participate in his first appearance on Monday afternoon in the Justice Hall in San Jose to confront a felony.
The investigators said that the theft of Mawalim left the paramedics without Morphin in the emergency scenes of patients who were injured or patients. The firefighting leader is allegedly attempted to cover up his crimes by filling empty bottles with different materials.
On April 14, a paramedic (authorities) was alerted that morphine from another fire house was given to the patient earlier on the same day that he had had no effect on the patient’s pain. The drugs were suspected of being removed from the bottles and were replaced by other materials, “the office of the Santa Clara Province wrote.
Moalem is a 22 -year -old warrior with the fire department in San Jose. SJFD officials have been aware of its previous history with drug addiction, which included an overdose of the job and spending time in rehabilitation, according to the records obtained by Kron4.
“The community puts their lives in the hands of the first respondents during the emergency,” the provincial lawyer, Jeff Rosen, said. “There is no excuse for violating the confidence and safety of the residents of Santa Clara.”
The Da office said that the firefighting commander may face prison time.
San Jose police officers launched an investigation into the fire chief in April. They discovered that the morphine bottle had been tampered with at Station 4 off Li Li Street. “In addition to the damaged bottle, the review of all 34 firefighting stations concluded that the morphine bottles, Midazolam, benzodiazepine, were tampered with in 17 separate extinguishing stations throughout the city,” wrote the DA office.
SJPD officers used the automatic license plate reader system to track the Moalem vehicle and its location soon from the theft of a drug box from one station. The prosecutors said that the driver in the pictures is identical to Molim.
“Molim was also seen on April 8, 2025, at Station 29, a firefighting house that was not appointed to him, between two trucks of fire near where a drug box is kept. He was out of service at that time.”
Once the officers searched the house of the captain firefighter in Gilroe, they found a large group of needles, six SJFD signs of morphine, four SJFD branded vials in Medazolam, four SJFD signs for Midazolam, and four bags of IV spiral solution.
City officials said that the last day of work in Molim was on April 15. He is currently on vacation.
Records from the California Medical Emergency Services Authority stipulate that Moualim was in service and working as a firefighter for SJFP when he was found conscious in the bathroom on November 22, 2013. It was an empty injection and Mogafin her reader next to him. After Molim was transferred to the hospital, the police told that he was addicted to opiates, according to the EMSA report.

At that time, he had no drug theft record at work, says the EMSA report. Several SJDF members also witnessed that Moalem was a reliable and reliable and reliable firefighter.
