Drug support workers face court
Two WA Substance Users Association employees made a brief appearance in Perth Magistrate's Court this morning charged with a string of drug offences.
Elizabeth Mary Dear, 50, and Rosemary Rebecca Kaniski, 67, were arrested after police searched six homes in East Perth and Hamilton Hill in February.
Officers charged four people from the association after allegedly seizing methylamphetamine, heroin, cocaine and cannabis.
Ms Dear is facing more than 55 charges including possessing a prohibited drug and 47 counts of offering to sell or supply a prohibited drug.
Ms Kaniski has been charged with possessing heroin and 26 counts of offering to sell or supply a prohibited drug.
A spokeswoman for the association said the employees had been stood down pending the outcome of the court case.
The case has been adjourned until next month.
