An 18-year-old carrying 750 ecstasy pills was one of 63 revellers caught with drugs at a Melbourne dance party last night, say police.

Police and sniffer dogs nabbed the man, who has been charged with drug trafficking, at the the Winter Sound System dance festival at Melbourne Park. A 34-year-old man was also found with ecstasy and is expected to face drug trafficking charges.

Police said the others who were caught will be placed on drug diversion programs.

Inspector Paul Pottage said police would continue to target dance parties "where young people continue to take a variety of chemicals with no idea of their actual identity, purity or possible medical effects".

“This is just another way that Victoria Police is continuing to target illicit drug use and trafficking across Melbourne - and in a highly visible and out there manner,” he said.

“Our message is clear. It's not okay to use illicit drugs at home, at a party or at a dance festival, and it is doubly stupid to ingest chemicals with no knowledge about what it actually is or who has produced it."

“While our aim is to refer as many eligible people as possible to diversion services this is not always the outcome and a drug conviction is a black mark against your name that remains for a very long time."

Inspector Pottage said police will continue to use sniffer dogs to catch drug users and suppliers.

Who knows if it was MDMA or some imitation in the pills...

If it was MDMA...

Way to turn kids to legal highs like DMAA (pretty much the only drug that caused problems at Winter Sound System - Brisbane)

As much as the profiteering of such large amounts of pills getting sold at festivals pisses me off, I still feel for those busted, especially for small amounts.

Keep up the good work Mr Plod, I'm sure Mum and Dad can now sleep at night, thanks to you policing non violent crimes :\
 
I know about a dozen people who went last night all on pills "last of the good brown cherries" that they have been saving for the last month.

Hope none of them got busted =(

Also bringing 750 pills into a festival was pretty damn keen. I only take the bare minimum for myself into festivals and wrap that shit good and proper.
 
Those brown cherries were shit imo, small amounts of MDA iirc.
Don't know who'd be dumb enough to take 750 pills in, taking it in the usual way would certainly hurt :\
 
750 less pipes most likely - in which case I feel this is a good thing. Good ridance to the 18y.o fool who decided to take that many into a major festival that was clearly going to be heavily monitored by the police. Kids these days seem to be getting more and more reckless... Maybe I'm just getting old and jaded...

being under 18 would help you a great deal , police be getting you to spill beans on who gave them to you etc and only if you did dog then you might get a slap on wrist and put on a 4 year bond.If under 18 and you kept quiet then you end up in juvi until your 18 then off to big boys jail ..

Whoever gave him the pills is going to get knock at the door in next day or so 100% guarantee on that .. 18 year old be shitting his pants something chronic ...

anyone who supplies teenagers with large amounts for profit reasons is asking for it..
 
Yea thats just crazy. I mean who the hell would try to smuggle that many in anyway. Thats just askin for it. Really hope his life doesnt get ruined because of his silly mistake.
 
If he was supplying 750 pills I don't think he'd be completely new to the game.
Thats alot of cash to front for profit, you would think he would have been more careful.
 
^ That's what doesn't make sense though, like yea i agree that he probably wasn't new to the game, but if he wasn't surely he would no for a fact that there would be dog's at the festival and that taking 750 in would be no easy task...

Maybe he was a mule for someone else?
 
I was thinking he could've easily been a mule.

But seriously, it's alot of pills. I'd like to hear how he tried to stash them in.

while i do agree that he would most likely be spilling his guts to the popo, that doesn't entirely make sense.

when they bust someone, and they cooperate and tell them who the bigger fish is, dont they usually keep it out of the media?

if he is spilling, then surely his dealer would see this on tele/the paper and go "hrm...i did sell a thousand pack to a young dude going to WSS, maybe i'll stash everything just in case."

i just dont think the media would be allowed to say anything if he was.....on a side note i also did hear about someone in melbs being done with 3500 rounds in the city.....wasn't anywhere in the media. not altogether validated tho.....if someone else knows do tell, although it was a lil while ago, in the aftermath of machete shenanigans....;)

I'd say so, not that it really matters. Have to be good money involved for the risk though.
 
thats a lot of pills stashed up his anus. lol. and yeah. its pretty dumb to carry that much into a sniffer dog infested event :X.

good luck serving the terms young man

Whilst thats true, it's a bit different at big festivals, because the media are all over it as soon as something happens. Because they know that something will happen. It's not the same as finding someone randomly on the street where the media don't have an immediate chance to find out whats going on.

But for the record, I imagine the dealer to this kid would be quick smart to get rid of all his shit and play it safe for awhile. However if his smart he wouldn't give sufficient details to the kid for the cops to be able to do anything. e.g. seperate mobile phone + fake name.
 
Where the fuck would you even hide 750 pills?

Sounds like he was being used by some other blokes, they suck him in with the promise of money + free goods if he carries their stash in so they can distribute it inside. Can't think of any other explanation, nobody actually dealing would be dumb enough to carry hundreds of pills into a festival, I would think.
it is doubly stupid to ingest chemicals with no knowledge about what it actually is or who has produced it."

Yeah, and who's fault is that?
 
real fucking dumb to be walking in with 750.

I'm wondering if the pills did contain MDxx content in order to be snuffed out by the doggies....

but, yeah. this dude ought to be shitting bricks. you're pushing your luck catering for yourself at festivals, let alone the mass market 8o

Can confirm, she's in the clink. Dont know many specifics but it definately happened. As you no doubt know there's a certain amount of police corruption leading up to all this which would be reason enough for them to not make it to public.

Its rather sad that this had to happen to an 18yo kid. But for him to have access to such large amounts would suggest that he is rather well connected and would know what he's getting himself in for.

On that note though, knowing the risks - why the hell would he attempt it?

Absolute insanity, the second the dogs rocked up he should have legged it quietly. No way is that worth the risk.
