posted (June 3, 2010)
It was big news in January of this year when a foursome of society kids were charged with drug trafficking. Well, Twenty one year old university student, Nancy Gomez, one of four persons charged with drug trafficking and two counts of possession of a pipe, was freed of all charges when she appeared in the number two Magistrate's court today. The charges against her were withdrawn on a directive from the Director of Public Prosecutions dated April 7th.

The charges against the others still stand. They are 21 year old Matthew Stock, 18 year old Adrian Balderamos and 19 year old Frederick Ken Gomez. They are to return to court on July 22nd. The charges arose from an incident which occurred around Twelve A.M. on January 3rd. The police reported that they found a glass pipe on a small table near to a television in the living room. The police also reported that when they searched a bedroom they found a large black kit bag under a bed which contained 6.5 kilos, about 14 pounds of marijuana. Because it is over 5 kilos if any of the remaining three are convicted, they face mandatory imprisonment.
