Father And Son Set To Go On Trial In Alleged Quesnel Drug Operation

A trial date will be set in the fall for a father and son who are charged in connection with an alleged online drug selling operation that was based out of Quesnel.

31-year old Travis James Gaudette and 56-year old Darryl Arthur Gaudette will appear in court in Prince George on September 12th.

They are facing numerous charges including Importing a Controlled Substance and Possession of a Controlled Substance for the Purpose of Trafficking.

RCMP say a package containing 500 grams of Butylone was intercepted by the Canadian Border Service Agency back in June of 2013.

Police say it originated in China and was destined for an address in Quesnel.

Two males were arrested at that residence.

A search warrant was executed and RCMP say a variety of drugs were seized.

Investigators believe that the suspects were using a website to advertise and sell a wide variety of controlled substances to buyers across the country.

RCMP say 84 drug samples were sent to the Heath Canada lab for analysis and that some had not previously been seen.
