Police bust ecstasy manufacturing operation in Arizona
    #19241270 - 12/07/13 02:37 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Dec. 5th, 2013

PHOENIX (CBS5) -

A traffic stop involving an Arizona State University student led to the discovery of a drug manufacturing operation near the university campus and five arrests Wednesday evening.
MORE


Andrew James Gajkowski, 20, was driving on Interstate 17 and was stopped by an Arizona Department of Public Safety Highway Patrol officer about 5:30 p.m.

A DPS spokesman said the trooper pulled Gajkowski over because he was driving alone in the HOV lane. The trooper also smelled marijuana after he stopped the car.

A subsequent search of his vehicle turned up a backpack containing ecstasy pills and cocaine, according to a report on the DPS website.

Detectives obtained search warrants for the man's home in Goodyear and for his apartment near Apache and Rural roads in Tempe, according to the report.

In the Tempe apartment, detectives found thousands of ecstasy pills, 30 pounds of material used in the manufacture of ecstasy, and a pill press with motor, a veritable pill "factory," DPS said.

A spokeswoman for ASU confirmed the Gajkowski was a student. He has been booked into jail on several charges, including possession of marijuana, possession of dangerous drugs, transportation of dangerous drugs, conspiracy and manufacture for sale of dangerous drugs.

According to DPS, others arrested were:

    Malik Haseem Hooper. He is charged with possession of marijuana, illegal control of enterprise and conspiracy.

    Hunter Ault, 20. He is charged with possession of marijuana, possession for sale of marijuana, possession and use of dangerous drugs, possession for sale - dangerous drugs, illegal control of enterprise, manufacturing of dangerous drugs, conspiracy, possession of a forged instrument and forgery.

    Edward Ortiz, 19. He is charged with possession of marijuana, possession for sale, possession of dangerous drugs, possession for sale - dangerous drugs, illegal control of enterprise and conspiracy. 
    Kevin Kimes, 20. He is charged with possession of marijuana, possession of dangerous drugs, illegal control of enterprise, possession for sale - dangerous drugs, conspiracy.

"We want to find out what was their association, what was the hierarchy, if you will, who was doing what with these pills," said DPS spokesman Bart Graves.

Julie Newberg provided CBS 5 News with a written statement:

"Students who violate the law are subject to any criminal penalties brought against them through the court system.

"When the university learns of alleged conduct by one if its students, that would constitute a violation of the Student Code of Conduct, the matter is referred to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities for investigation. Based upon the findings of the investigation, the office determines the appropriate sanction, ranging from no sanction, suspension and expulsion from housing and/or school."

The apartment complex is housing for juniors and senior at ASU, Newberg said.

Ecstasy is a synthetic drug with properties similar to amphetamine and hallucinogens and is classified as a stimulant, according to The Partnership at Drugfree.org, and goes by the street names of Adam, E, Molly, Roll, X and XTC.

DPS said the man was facing possible charges of possession of marijuana, possession of a dangerous drug, possession of a dangerous drug for sale, transportation of a dangerous drug for sale, manufacture of a dangerous drug, conducting an illegal enterprise and conspiracy.

ASU police and Tempe police were assisting in the ongoing investigation, according to the DPS website.

Sounds like it was a pill press lab/factory not where the MDMA was actually being made.

Obviously not professionals lol. Sounds like some spoiled rich kid who will now be paying for it for the rest of his life. Hate to say it but he got what was coming for being such a reckless dumbass.

Does anyone here understand how hard it is to get a motorized pill press, and keep it running? this wasnt an amateur operation. sure the kid got caught riding dirty, but whoever was truly behind this knew what the fuck they were doing.

It is not that hard bro. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean its hard to get. Hell I could buy one and have it delivered to my front door in a week or less for under 2 grand. I'm not some underworld type with plenty of shady connects either. I wasn't saying he was an amateur for riding dirty because everyone does that at some point. I am curious though,  what convinces you he was operating his business in a professional way? Just because he had a pill press and mad quantity doesn't mean bunk. If he covered all his bases and wasn't recklessly riding around with drugs breaking the law then he would be a free man still. Where is your evidence that this kid knew what the hell he was doing? A monkey could run a damn pill press and move MDMA. Obviously an amateur bro nuff said.

Why people keep calling him stupid? You are pretty stupid if you don't know the cops always say they smelled weed when they want to do illegal search. I love when you retards gang up on victims of the drug war, its so charming. When you get busted it won't be because of your stupidity though. That will be different.

I didn't even know what an HOV lane was til I read this artcle :shrug:


The guy may be careless, but I don't think he's too stupid.  Usually careless mistakes are what nab us in the end.

A wise person once told me, if you are going to commit crimes, only ever commit one crime at a time.

This is an absurd irony upon that statement.

I never used the word stupid I called him a dumbass fyi. Stupid means lacking intelligence or common sense. This DUMBASS knew it wasn't a good idea to ride around in a car full of drugs while breaking the law by driving in the HOV lane alone. He knew the risk but he made a noobish amateur move anyway. That is not something a professional does. I have nothing against drugs and I am against the drug war but since you brought the word stupid into it I have to make a Forest Gump reference. Remember "Stupid is as stupid does" and if you think this guy had his shit together maybeyou should get YOUR head checked.
