It is not alleged or suggested these vehicles were purchased with the proceeds of crime.

During sentencing submissions on Monday, Martin Anders for Pacino told the court his client had worked “extremely hard” and now owned three separate businesses.

“He commenced an online business, street wear, which runs to the present but hasn’t been entirely successful,” Mr Anders said.

“But he now owns two barber shops and employs eight people, started just doing men’s hair but now does men’s and women's.

“He has worked extremely hard to achieve a good deal.”

Pacino owns Dimentico Barber Lounge in Gawler and Parafield alongside Dimentico Streetwear.

The court heard Pacino had begun using drugs socially, and his “pursuit overtook him” resulting in debts.

Mr Anders said Pacino involved himself in “small scale” trading with people “close to him” to pay for his own drugs.

He was arrested and charged after police searched his Gawler South home and located more than 20 grams of cocaine – ten times the trafficable amount – and $21700 in cash inside a locked safe.

The cocaine was packaged in six “8-ball” quantities, which had a sale value of approximately $6400.

Pacino will be sentenced for one count of trafficking in a controlled drug in June.
