A Hyde Park man was arraigned this morning on drug trafficking charges after his arrest with almost 2000 painkillers and sedatives for which he had no prescription, including more than 1900 pills hidden inside children’s toys in a box he’d received from Florida, Suffolk County District attorney Daniel F. Conley said today.

GREGORY HORAN (D.O.B. 11/26/79) is charged with trafficking in between 100 and 200 grams of a Class B substance, possession of a Class C substance with intent to distribute, and violating the state’s drug laws in a school zone. Assistant District Attorney Ryan Mingo recommended that Horan be held on $75,000 cash bail; Judge Edward Redd set bail at $3,000, the amount Horan posted following his arrest yesterday.

State Police narcotics detectives assigned to the Suffolk DA’s office were informed yesterday by Federal Express security specialists that a package shipped to the company’s Post Office Square location contained a large amount of prescription pills. Together with Boston Police detectives and U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents, the troopers viewed the package and its contents, then resealed it. The package was addressed to “Mr. G. Horan” and marked for pick-up by the recipient. It had been sent from Miami the day before.

Investigators set up surveillance on the FedEx Kinko’s location at Post Office Square and watched Horan enter at about 11:20 a.m. He signed for the package, took custody of it, and left the store with it. Investigators approached Horan near the intersection of Congress and Water streets, which is within 1,000 feet of The Children’s Place at 53 State St. They seized the package, placed Horan under arrest, and read him his Miranda rights.

A search of Horan’s person turned up two plastic baggies, one containing 21 30mg Oxycodone tablets and the other containing 25 80mg Oxycodone tablets.

The package, which was still sealed when Horan was taken into custody, contained two coloring books and a box of Fisher Price Snap-Lock Beads. Inside those beads were a total of 1,892 Oxycodone tablets and 30 tablets of Alprazolam, a prescription sedative.

When asked about the package, Horan allegedly declined to give a statement and asked for an attorney. Investigators did not ask any further questions.

Horan was represented today by attorney Evan Spencer. He will return to court on Nov. 19.
