Erica Anderson was said to be 'utterly ashamed of herself'
A mum who fell victim to her son’s drug dealing was hauled before a court after police found thousands of pounds worth of cannabis stashed at her home.
Darius Anderson, 28, a ‘low-level’ drug dealer, had stashed some of the drugs, scales and cash at his mum’s house as part of the business. Sentencing them, the Recorder of Manchester Judge Nicholas Dean KC said: “She is a victim of her son’s behaviour, at the end of the day.”Darius Anderson was jailed for 30 months, for possession with intent to supply class B drugs, and after having previously breached a suspended sentence order.
“The total value of the drugs found was between £8,277 and £11,365. They were arrested on the day of the searches, Mr Anderson gave no comment in his police interview.Then in May this year, police went back to Ashley Lane after Darius had moved back home and executed a further search warrant. They found a large quantity of cannabis in the house, and 24 further deals of the drug in a white box in the garden.
Mitigating for Darius Anderson, Constance Halliwell said: “He understands the impact of drugs on the community. He is remorseful and sorry and regrets his actions.”
