LSD Tiny Teddy dealer jailed

LSD Tiny Teddy dealer jailed

A TORQUAY man, who laced Tiny Teddy biscuits with LSD, had a drug-trafficking operation with an estimated two-monthly turnover of almost $40,000, a court has heard.

Judge Gerard Mulally said that had Domenic Battaglia not been stopped, he would have continued his operation that, based on police estimates, had a potential annual turnover of $240,000.

Judge Mulally described Battaglia as a significant drug-supplier in the Geelong area, who had done it all before.

Battaglia, 49, of Cullen Court, Torquay, pleaded guilty in Geelong County Court yesterday to charges of trafficking amphetamine, ecstasy, cannabis and LSD.

Battaglia was convicted and sentenced to four years jail with a non-parole period of two years and nine months.

Crown prosecutor Paul Darcy said police discovered Battaglia's trafficking during a telephone intercept operation regarding a separate inquiry early last year.

Mr Darcy said that between February 25 and March 23, 2010, Battaglia sold amphetamine, ecstasy, LSD and cannabis to numerous people on a daily basis.

"He used his mobile phone to organise the trafficking of drugs and his vehicles, a white Hyundai sedan and black Triumph motorcycle, to deliver and collect drugs," he said.

"On March 11, an undercover police operative attended the accused's home and purchased two grams of amphetamine for $480.

"Then on March 16, a police operative went to Battaglia's home and purchased 46 tabs of LSD for $1000."

He told the court police found that during the two-month period, Battaglia had purchased for sale, 40.5 grams of amphetamine, 1250 ecstasy tablets, 289 LSD tablets and a kilo of cannabis.

Mr Darcy said police executed a drugs search warrant on Battaglia's home at about 6.40am on March 23.

"Inside the premises they found 103 ecstasy tablets, 21 grams of amphetamine, three LSD tablets and 25 Tiny Teddy Biscuits laced with LSD," he said. "They also located about three ounces of cannabis, a quantity of plastic snap-lock bags, two sets of digital scales, a sheet of paper containing names and amounts owed, five mobile phones and $1370 cash."

Michael Brugman, for Battaglia, said his client was ashamed of what he had done.

Mr Brugman said Battaglia was himself a drug user and had one prior for drug trafficking in 2004 where he was sentenced to 28 months jail.

But Judge Mullally rejected Mr Brugman's submission Battaglia was a user, saying the quantities of drugs sold by Battaglia and amounts found in his house tallied with the total amount purchased by him.

A lot of people I know keep the rule to "never communicate via texts".  I don't say anything illegal or incriminating unless I am looking at someone I know and trust in the face and we're not inside of a building.

Just recently a friend of mine was running his mouth on the phone.  I corrected him and he said something to the effect of "do you have any idea of how many phones are being used right now?"

It isn't about them passively scanning communications for drug trafficking info.  That'd be pointless.  What does happen often however is that people get lazy and start talking shit through media which can be heard by non-friendly ears.  One way or another someone hears something that shouldn't have been heard and by the time you know it you're in cuffs.

You shouldn't be selling drugs from your house, ever.  It's hard to beat long-term surveillance but if this guy had been a little less sloppy he could have avoided making himself so easy.

No shit. Also 2 grams of speed for $480... I buy like 150 grams for that sort of money. They probably pocketed most of it.

46 hits for $1000 is over $20 a dose, and in bulk?

Must say that price seems pretty steep. His prices for all his products is steep. In Texas, its much cheaper than when u get to the northern states. I've heard of people paying way more for everything than I would here. $50 an oz of dank, 5-10-15$ a hit (depending on quality/quantity).  He better have the best damn acid I've ever taken for that price, lol. Btw, I love cid on teddy grams. One of the best ways to store and distribute I think.

I meant 50 for an oz of some reggie. Not dank dank. An oz of dank dank goes for like $420, something like that. Don't usually buy higher quality. Just lots of reggie

Damn that is some expensive ass cid. 
Looks like this dude just overextended himself and got caught. 


losfreddy $420 an oz is a rip off.  If i were you I'd just buy that $50/oz mids and make some hash out of it.

I do see your point there Pilz, I'd probably pay those prices if i couldn't get my hands on anything else.  Depending on what your going to do with them this could be a good or bad thing, but here shrooms only go for about $9/per gram here.
