194,000 euros in two years

The rules are strict. Twelve people maximum in the apartment, ten euros entrance fees and 30 euros for drugs. Participants pay into a Lydia account and the money is converted into cryptocurrency. “I decided to organize these evenings because I didn’t like Parisian orgies. I did not feel safe there and I wanted to do something kindly,” he says. The investigators discovered that in two years he had collected 194,000 euros thanks to this system. Fabien frequents casinos and leads the high life. “It was not an organization. They were friends and private parties. I made no profit and I was in the red every month, ”says the defendant.

Despite the rules of caution that the 30-year-old imposes on his guests, the police put an end to his organization in January. Indeed, the neighbors of his building are tired of the incessant comings and goings in the building. Officials set up a surveillance operation and arrest a customer who walks out with 3-MMC. They then search Fabien’s apartment and get their hands on two cans of GBL, 18 g of 3-MMC and 2,400 euros in cash. During the search, the police also found posters detailing the rules of the premises: remain discreet, do not bring other products. There are also instructions so that the taking of drugs is spaced out in time.

A target in prison

The police then discover that Fabien has an employee under his orders, Romain. He is in charge of opening the door, providing the drugs and helping to clean up for 50 euros. This young man of 33 years is under the scope of a suspended sentence for trafficking, which will earn him a sentence of thirteen months in prison. “I was mainly there to help”, notes the right arm of the organizer.

Fabien’s lawyer recalls that his sexual orientation makes him a target in prison. “He is not a neighborhood dealer, he only sold drugs in his evenings, underlines his advice. The goal for him was not to make money. He suffers from an addiction to sex and drugs in this context of orgies that he practices to forget his discomfort. »
