Drugs charges follow double deaths

1 min read

An 18 year-old woman has been arrested and charged with four counts of supplying a Class B controlled drug – methadone – after an investigation into the deaths last year of two young men whose bodies were discovered in a Glen Innes garage.

The woman, currently on remand in Mt Eden Prison for unrelated alleged offences, has been ordered to appear in the Auckland District Court today.

The two deceased were 23 year-old Charlie Laupua and 15 year-old Brian Rangi, both of Glen Innes. Their bodies were found in a garage in Tosca lane in the afternoon of November 30, 2003.
