They have created a veritable “narcotic Uber”. Two Bergeracois aged 17 and 18 were arrested and brought before a judge for drug trafficking this Friday, July 29. Since March, the two young people posted ads for cocaine, ecstasy or MDMA and found their customers on the Snapchat social network. They prepared their home orders and delivered them themselves. According to the Bergerac prosecution, one of them took on the role of accountant while the other managed the orders. The two apprentice students have set up a real business in just a few months.
Sentenced to a one-year suspended prison sentence
But the 17-year-old’s parents have noticed a change in their son’s attitude. They went themselves to denounce him to the Bergerac police. Investigators found at the suspects’ home packaged products and 700 euros in cash. The accounts of the little _”company“_ were flourishing according to investigators.
The youngest will be tried in October in children’s court. The eldest was given a one-year suspended prison sentence and a fine of 5,000 euros at a preliminary guilt hearing. He admitted the facts.
