Albury mother supplied nearly $30,000 worth of ice from home
A 45-year-old dealt 136.3 grams of methamphetamine for $30,000; her daughter, 26, pleaded guilty to 20 charges as courier.
An Albury mother and daughter will be sentenced on December 8 for their role in supplying methamphetamine across the region. The mother, Gemma Milham, dealt large quantities from her home in Eastern Circuit, supplying 136.3 grams over several months in return for just under $30,000.
Mahli Skye Wiesner-Milham, 26, acted as courier, delivering small amounts on her mother's behalf. The daughter also faces charges for driving with methamphetamine in her blood.
On one occasion, she passed a balloon containing five grams of ice to an inmate at Cooma prison; the balloon was later extracted during emergency surgery at Canberra hospital. Both pleaded guilty after their cases stalled when they sought help through drug rehabilitation programs.
