The Sentinel
Wednesday 19 Sep 2007 A 22-year-old caught in possession of more than £300 of cannabis has been spared a jail sentence.Chantelle Finn, of Kirby Street, Cobridge, pleaded guilty to possessing more than 61 grams of the class-C drug, with intent to supply. The drugs were found by police in her home on October 14 last year, Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court heard yesterday. Recorder Mukhtar Hussain said he had not sent her to prison because of efforts she has made since to improve herself, including getting a job in a cafeteria. Prosecutor David Bennett said Finn had pooled money with her friends to buy the drug, sell it on and feed her own addiction. Daniel Oscroft, defending, said it was not an example of large-scale drug-dealing. Finn will carry out 150 hours of unpaid work, and was given 12-month supervision order with costs of £450. http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/
