The Parker County Sheriff’s Special Crimes Unit worked with Texas Department of Public Safety Criminal Investigations Division special agents, Texas Highway Patrol troopers and Mineral Wells police to make drug-related arrests following a rave party held over the weekend, according to a news release.

Parker County Sheriff Russ Authier said an anonymous tip led to the undercover operation at the Flow Faire rave held in the 11000 block of Mineral Wells Highway, in the Parker County city of Cool. “Various street drugs” including MDMA/Molly, psilocybin mushrooms, Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) edibles and vape cartridges, cocaine and ketamine were distributed and consumed at the party, the release said.

Officers identified three individuals “at the helm of the investigation.”

The suspects were identified as Christopher Andrew Primrose, 35; Karla Ruby Del Heurto, 42; and Brandon Cody Palmer, 31.

Investigators conducted undercover buy transactions with the suspects, the release said.
