From a man who claimed he was only dealing to his friends, to a mum keeping track with a tick sheet, several Warwick residents have been convicted of drug dealing over the past month. Whether they re busted in a police raid or even a simple search of their mobile phone, each person appears in court ready to plead their case. This is the full list of Rose City drug dealers convicted within the past month: Warwick police raided
Sonja Michelle Brown s home on November 30, where they found a mobile phone with messages from people trying to buy marijuana. The 43-year-old was also found with 6.5g of marijuana, three sets of scales, a bong, a grinder, and a tick sheet with names and dollar amounts from previous drug sales.
A Southern Downs woman sprung with a homegrown stash of marijuana and more than 50 used needles has claimed the latter were left over from her days as a heroin addict. Police raided Amy Jean Wesley s Deuchar home on December 16 last year, where they found two marijuana plants between 25cm and 30cm tall in her bedroom. The Warwick Magistrates Court heard police also found 51 used needles in a brown handbag hidden in the 31-year-old s bedroom cupboard. Police prosecutor Ken Wiggan said the Deuchar woman told investigating officers she accumulated the syringes when she was addicted to heroin several years earlier. Sergeant Wiggan said Wesley claimed she held on to the needles after running out of sharps bins, eventually forgetting she had them.
