Outwardly Samantha Dillon, aka ‘Sammy Dee’, looked like any doting mum on Facebook.
And while most young mums were using the social media platform to organise soccer practice or share inspirational memes, the 26-year-old from Narara, was selling drugs — even when she was supposed to be attending court.
The mother-of-two pleaded guilty to the ongoing supply of drugs at Gosford Local Court on Friday while another six drug and dealing with the proceeds of crime charges will be considered at sentencing.
A further 11 drug and proceeds of crime charges were withdrawn and dismissed.
An agreed set of facts tendered at court stated Dillon was supposed to attend Wyong Local Court on April 11 last year.
But when she failed to appear a warrant was issued for her arrest.
Five days later at 11.50am on April 16 police caught Dillon and another man running through bushland at the rear of Bon Bon Fire Chocolate factory on Justfrute Drive West at Gosford.
She was found to have two clear resealable bags containing 7.55g and 1.83g of methylamphetamine, three diazepam tablets, one Oxazepam tablet and a small package wrapped in a green balloon inside a clear container, which she would later tell police were 20 Buprenorphine tablets.
She did not have a script for any of the prescription medication.
Police also discovered a couple of Medicare cards, which had been reported stolen, and a NSW Driver’s Licence belonging to someone else.
Back at Gosford Police Station they found 0.41g of cocaine stashed in a small bag inside a chewing gum packet and an extendible metal baton.
But it was when police examined her phone the full extent of her drug dealing became apparent.
“A review of the accused’s mobile phone established the accused was in fact, supplying prohibited drugs in West Gosford on the date (of her court appearance),” the police facts read.
“An examination of this phone identified numerous conversations between the accused and other persons where the accused was referred to as Sammy, Miss D or Sam.
“Furthermore the accused discussed ongoing aspects of her personal life including the incarceration of her partner and the recent issuing of a warrant for her arrest.
“It was apparent that the accused was largely using this service to facilitate the purchase and supply of prohibited drugs and prescribed restrictive substances.”
Among the conversations police discovered were:
■ At 2:57pm on March 18 she had a conversation with a man who she agreed to supply 14 Oxycodone tablets for $100;
■ At 2.13am on March 29 she had a conversation with a person who introduced himself as `Mitch’ and said he had a gold watch and Calvin Klein jumper he wanted to exchange for 0.4g of methylamphetamine. She negotiated him down to 0.2g and he sent her extensive photos which showed the watch to be an Adina Oceaneer. The same as the one police found in her handbag during her arrest;
■ At 12.20pm on April 11 — the day she was supposed to be at Wyong Local Court — she had a conversation with a man who she agreed to supply 3.5g of methylamphetamine for $700;
■ She had another conversation with a woman where she agreed to supply 0.3g of `ice’ for $100 and later agreed to supply a further 3.5g of methylamphetamine for $700;
■ At 5.27am on April 12 she had a conversation with a man who she agreed to supply 0.3g of methylamphetamine for $100;
■ On April 13 at 2.54am she had a conversation with a woman where she agreed to supply the same.
■ At 6.28pm on April 15 had a conversation with a man who offered to exchange a GoPro Hero 4 camera for 0.3g of methylamphetamine and “cash for grog”. At the time of her arrest she was in possession of a GoPro Hero 4.
■ On 4.15am on April 16, the day of her arrest, she had a conversation with a man who she agreed to supply five Xananx tablets. During this conversation she offered to supply him 20mL of “G” which is a common street name for Gama-hydroxybutyrate.
Dillon will face Gosford District Court on Thursday to set a sentencing date.
