Jacquelin ‘Jackie’ Coady, 33, fronted Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday charged with trafficking a commercial quantity of drugs.

Ms Coady and her lover John ‘Johnny’ Smith, who the court heard was also charged with trafficking drugs, were arrested at their Mulgrave home on January 5 this year.

Ms Coady, who was also charged with possess ammo and a registered longarm without a licence, was also allegedly nabbed with a firearm.

Casey Crime Investigation Unit detectives allegedly seized various drugs including cocaine, cannabis, meth, anabolic steroids and GHB-mirror drug 1,4 butanediol.

Ms Coady, who was also charged with trafficking 1,4 butanediol, was also allegedly nabbed with a dicey driver’s licence and $3480 cash.
