- A phone allegedly contained records of drug debts.

## Summary

Jesse Doree, 28, appeared in Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on a commercial-quantity cocaine trafficking charge, while prosecutors and his lawyer continue negotiations over a possible resolution. He also faces two fraud charges linked to an insurance claim, and his lawyer said he needs more information about those allegations.

Police allege Doree was arrested in July after a month-long investigation and that officers seized more than 300 grams of drugs, including cocaine, along with $45,000 in cash. They estimate the cocaine’s street value at $100,000. An investigator told an earlier bail hearing that a phone allegedly used for trafficking contained videos of cocaine and records of debts of $35,000 and $42,000, as well as a list of people said to owe Doree money; the allegations have yet to be determined by the court.
