He was paying around £35/g or there abouts, which given the risk is pretty stupid to order from a place like Costa Rica to a small town, no wonder it "aroused suspicion".

He could have easily just bought some real domestic pure and bashed it down if he was really just going to sell it, scales and lists at his house though, damn.

Ekwall Singh-Tiwana, defending, had urged the court to pass a suspended sentence so Richards-Chiverton could continue his studies and help to support his mother, whe has serious health issues, and his fifteen year old sister

But Recorder Grumbar said the case was too serious for anything other than an immediate jail term.

What a dick prosecutor, though it just goes to show you can easily go inside for a few grams, contray to what a lot of people on here believe.

Wow this has been a serious wake up call for me. 2 years for that? Fucking hell I would be looking at a life sentence!

Two years for a piddling half ounce, they really shafted him there.

natural selection honestly. what the fuck? youre gonna import cocaine into the UK not even expecting to make more than a thousand dollars? like even if he sold gs at 100(which is hard where im from). that is still only 910 of profit. even if he cuts it the most is like 2,000 dolalrs he can profit. idk. maybe he justt wasnt thinking.

"The laptop showed how he had made this purchase - using the dark web where guns, ammunition and drugs are sold by criminals over the internet,"

Again with the guns bullshit? Fucking sensationalist news. We mostly get our drugs for occasional recreational use (weekend with a close friend + candyflip doesn't hurt anybody, not even ourselves, given that we take pure stuff and not get tricked with NBOMes and shit), and there are a few resellers here and there. Of course there are illegal things (it's an uncontrolled market!), but it's not as dark (heh) and dangerous as they want make it appear...

sigh
