Operation Julie: The World's Greatest Lsd Bust

Six million tabs of LSD were recovered by the police and 120 people were arrested throughout the UK and France. Stashes of LSD worth 100 million pounds were also unearthed and 800,000 pounds werediscovered hidden in Swiss bank accounts. Eventually, 17 defendants were jailed for a total of 130 years in the wake of the investigation code-named Operation Julie. Lyn Ebenezer was a journalist in the Tregaron area at the time of the case.
