A Nottingham dad resorted to drug dealing after he lost his job and fell into financial difficulties
A dad resorted to drug dealing after he lost his job and fell into financial difficulties, a court heard. Jovan Mullins returned to dealing as a "last resort", explained his barrister, Shannon English, at Nottingham Crown Court.
One bundle of drugs was in his pants, the court was told on Monday . A search of Mullins's home turned up a quantity of heroin, valued between £130-£350, a quantity of cocaine with an 82 percent purity, which prosecutor David Eager told the court was "a significant fact in the case, as it was not prepared for sale at street level and was far too pure".
In December 2013 he was chased and dumped bundles of wraps of crack cocaine and heroin, the court was told. In his pre-sentence report for the offences he was jailed over, he said he took up drug dealing again because he lost his job and was in financial difficulties
