Description
On April 16, 1963, defendant, while standing on the step of the home of one Gloria Medina, was approached by Jesse Saenz, Jr., an informer for the Arizona state liquor department. Saenz asked defendant if he had any "carga" (slang for heroin) for sale. Defendant replied affirmatively if Saenz had $10.00. Saenz stated he did not have any money, but that his friend "Mike" who was waiting in a parked car, did have ten dollars. Thereupon Saenz proceeded to the car, and received $10.00 from "Mike," who was in reality Roy Madrid, an agent of the Department of Liquor Licenses and Control. Saenz returned, handed defendant the money, and received a small white paper which contained heroin. Saenz turned the paper over to Madrid, who departed immediately. Later, defendant was arrested. He was tried before a jury and convicted on September 30, 1963.
