Arrest nets 500 Ecstasy pills, $1,000 [WA]

Arrest nets 500 Ecstasy pills, $1,000
June 23, 2006 - belleville.com

Drug enforcement officers arrested a Seattle, Wash., woman after discovering more than 500 pills of Ecstasy on her in one of the largest busts of its kind in the metro-east.

"We are seeing a lot more of the drug in this area," said Sgt. Thomas Trice, head of the St. Clair County Drug Tactical Unit. "The drug's target market are kids from 16 to 24 years old. That's why we want to crack down hard on this."

Tanielle L. Jackson, 25, of Seattle faces a charge of unlawful possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver -- a felony that carries a possible prison sentence of up to 30 years.

The Drug Tactical Unit received a tip on June 16 that a suspected drug trafficker from the Seattle area was selling drugs in the areas around East St. Louis and Caseyville, Trice said.

Jackson was positively identified through vehicle records. Police began conducting surveillance and spotted the woman leaving a Caseyville restaurant before executing a traffic stop, Trice said.

After Jackson consented to a search, police discovered the pills and $1,000 in cash, Trice said. Jackson told police she had been in the Caseyville-Centreville-East St. Louis area for four days before her arrest.

"Ecstasy is an import drug," Trice said. "It usually comes from Canada and into the states through bordering states."

The drug became popular on the East and West coasts, but is beginning to spread in the Midwest, Trice said.

Ecstasy, a so-called "club drug" also known as XTC or E, affects serotonin, a brain chemical that regulates mood, emotion, sleep, appetite, memory and sexual behavior. The drug typically induces feelings of euphoria, increased energy and sexual arousal, and makes people feel a need to be touched or hugged.

The illegal drug, known scientifically as methylenedioxymethamphetamine, or MDMA, is also said to suppress the need to eat, drink or sleep, making it possible to endure parties for two or three days.

500 down, 1,000,000,000 more to go. The war on drugs wages on. That cop got another check mark next to his name for this month.
