Melbourne buy cocaine

The volatile lives behind Australia's booming cocaine trade. The man in the balaclava finishes scanning the Melbourne townhouse for listening devices. There's a knock at the door. In walks a hulking figure wearing a ski mask, sunglasses and a camouflage raincoat. The smell of fumes drifts across the room — a by-product of the petrol used to process it. It's so ubiquitous, even those meant to be upholding the law are using cocaine. Jason is a trafficker operating at the highest levels of organised crime. He deals kilos of cocaine a week. He's never been caught. He's in a lucrative market. Australians are the highest per capita users of cocaine in the world — 4. We're in the middle of an unprecedented cocaine boom. In just the four months between November and February, authorities seized almost 7. That's 3 tonnes more than the previous annual record for cocaine seizures in Australia. To understand how this shadow economy works, Four Corners met with people across the cocaine supply chain, from street dealers all the way to the highest-level operators like Jason. They reveal a world of big money and big risk, power and paranoia. Verifying what they say is hard, but what they describe stacks up with the public record and what people in the underworld have told the ABC. For some, this is breaking a code of silence in an industry regulated by violence. In Australia, the dealers selling to consumers are generally operating at the bottom of the supply chain. One of these street dealers agrees to meet at an apartment complex in west Melbourne. He comes to the door wearing a mask and never removes it. Over an encrypted app, he places an order for four ounces of cocaine. He then posts on Snapchat, Wickr and Signal, letting his customers know he's 'on for the week'. The dealer is a solo operator, running cocaine direct to consumers and supplying other dealers with diluted or 'cut' product. He works with a couple of different mid-tier drug traffickers who claim to be associated with outlaw motorcycle clubs. I saw my mates doing it, and how they started making money fast, buying cars, and nice clothes and stuff. While he waits for his order to be dropped off, he prepares 'cutters' — fake cocaine that he uses to dilute the drug and 'rip off' clients. The dealer crushes Panadol into a fine powder before spraying it with hairspray until it forms clumps. He then wraps it in plastic film and compresses the powder with the bottom of a perfume bottle. This will be mixed with the product he gets to maximise his profits, or he'll bag it up and sell it to people he doesn't know in a nightclub or bar. It's not just clients he's willing to rip off. He receives another message from a mid-tier supplier offering a cocaine bargain. Selling it for 5, an ounce. Builds the trust a little bit, just pulls out a gun when he least expects it and goes 'give me everything now'. Pretty simple. These ones have been used a fair bit though. The dealer is caught in the tussle of a volatile lifestyle. At every turn, he feels as though he has everything to gain and everything to lose. Every single day. Just to get through the day. Thinking people are trying to set me up. Causing a lot of fights and arguments in my relationships, friendships, yeah, it's just a downhill spiral. She works in a high-powered role in sales, dines at upmarket restaurants and is looking to add a new Rolex to her collection. When Remy first entered the corporate world, it opened a whole new market for her other business — cocaine. What became a glamorous double life started as a fight for survival. Remy's conservative Lebanese childhood was turned upside down when she was just 12 years old. I started to take on a bit more of a masculine persona. One night, Remy's stepdad went through her phone and read flirty messages with her girlfriend. In her desperation, she went to the only place she felt safe — a hour diner in Parramatta where she found solace beneath the cameras. Remy eventually met an older woman she describes as a 'mother hen' who offered to help her make money. By age 13, she was selling cocaine and rapidly climbing the ranks. During this time, Remy was repeatedly stabbed, bashed and sexually assaulted. Moving to the corporate world brought Remy safety and access to new customers, but also new problems. She became addicted to the money and to hard drugs herself. You've got all this money. For more than five years, Remy kept up her double life — selling coke to wealthy professionals during her work hours. That's another street thing. I'm very, very money focused because it's about changing our narrative and our generational wealth. By the time Remy was in her early twenties, she knew she wanted out of the cocaine business — but it wasn't easy or quick. In the murky world of cocaine trafficking, there are operators who believe it is worth the long-term commitment. A lot of people call that pearl or mother of pearl,' he says. You don't really see anything in the 90s. Jason has been dealing for 30 years and operates at the highest levels. In order to survive for as long as he has, he subscribes to a code. A code that defines how they work. Some people break the code, they talk, or violent people take things too far. If you can get down to the human level, tell people I'm giving them my word, money for good product, there will be no trouble. In this industry you need the combination of being respected, in a loving way, and a little bit of fear but not too much. He says there have only been two occasions in which he has had guns pulled on him. If someone pulls a gun and they're going to use it, you won't see it. He hasn't been caught by law enforcement either. He is well-versed in digital hygiene, police surveillance and management in the drugs business. Jason, who had a balaclava-clad associate scan for listening devices, doesn't let us keep an audio recording of the interview. You have to be vetted. You have to work your way up. At a certain level, there's heaps of paranoia. When we're dealing with the millions,' Jason says. Three years ago, Australian Federal Police targeted a so-called 'Aussie Cartel' of nine traffickers the authorities believed were responsible for about 30 per cent of all drug importations, worth billions of dollars. Jason says that isn't the case anymore, and these days the industry has splintered into a growing number of smaller syndicates. A lot of the bigger players got taken out and the traditional ways of getting cocaine into the country was compromised so there's new ways and different people on the scene. As Australia's appetite for cocaine grows, dealers and traffickers like Jason are getting on with the business of meeting that demand. There is a cost. A recent Australian study linked cocaine to almost deaths in the past five years. Jason justifies his role, saying he's like a 'well-paid Uber Eats driver'. As long as I'm doing my part, I can sleep well. Watch Four Corners lift the lid on this shadowy underworld, speaking with the people involved throughout the cocaine supply chain on ABC iview.

Warning over 'extremely potent' drug being sold on streets as cocaine

Nicole Lee works as a paid consultant to the alcohol and other drug sector. She has previously been awarded grants by state and federal governments, NHMRC and other public funding bodies for alcohol and other drug research. She is a Board member of The Loop Australia. National Institutes of Health. Earlier this month, drugs sold as cocaine in Melbourne were found to be contaminated with a powerful group of opioids, known as nitazenes. These new synthetic drugs were also the suspected cause of four people being hospitalised in Sydney in May. And in April, nitazenes were found in drugs used by around 20 people who overdosed in outer Sydney. Nitazenes are a group of synthetic opioids. Nitazenes were developed in the s to expand options for pain management, but the research was abandoned because they were too dangerous. Other common opioids include heroin , morphine and fentanyl , which are used for medical and non-medical purposes. Nitazenes vary in potency and purity but can be ten times stronger than fentanyl, and up to times more potent than heroin. This means some people may take nitazenes without knowing it. Because these drugs are so strong they can be especially dangerous for people who are not used to taking opioids. If someone has taken too much heroin, it takes an hour or more before they stop breathing, but nitazenes can take just a few minutes. Opioids interfere with the part of the brain that controls breathing. Someone overdosing on opioids may have a strong pulse but their breathing will be shallow or stop. Taking nitazenes in combination with another illicit drug can make them even more dangerous. Places like the United States , the United Kingdom and Ireland have seen concerning increases in overdoses related to nitazenes in recent years, so experts in Australia are worried we may follow suit. And given nitazenes have been found in Australia in drugs sold as cocaine , MDMA and ketamine , more people may be at risk of overdose. Although only a relatively small proportion of the population use cocaine, use has increased significantly in the past 20 years in Australia. In —23, 4. In , 2. Ketamine has also increased in popularity as a recreational drug. In —23, 1. Some 4. Most people who use these sorts of drugs do so only occasionally, but harms from nitazenes are a concern even for people who use these drugs just once. People using drugs such as cocaine, MDMA or ketamine can get them checked at a drug checking service. However, drug checking services are currently only available in the Australian Capital Territory and Queensland. Victoria is due to get a service by the end of this year. Australians can also buy nitazene test strips , which can detect the presence of nitazenes in a drug sample. While cross-reactivity is often a problem for drug test strips, in recent testing, nitazene strips were found not to cross-react to a panel of other common substances outside the nitazene class. If you regularly use these types of drugs you can keep naloxone on hand. Naloxone reverses the effects of opioids by temporarily blocking the opioid receptors in the brain. If you or someone you know has trouble breathing or any unwanted symptoms after taking a drug, call triple zero immediately, even if you have administered naloxone. They could expand harm reduction services, such as drug checking and supervised injecting services, and ensure we have ample stocks of naloxone. Edition: Available editions Europe.
