A dad fought back tears as he told a judge he had "lost everything" to drugs after running up £2,500 debts to his dealers.
Drug addict Peter Spencer was threatened and pressured into allowing his suppliers to dig up the concrete in the yard of his home in Chiswell Street, Kensington, and install a safe containing £180,000 worth of heroin, cocaine and cannabis. The organised crime group also set up a small cannabis farm in his loft and cajoled him into operating two "graft phones".
The drugs were found during a raid by Merseyside Police on September 6, 2019, and Spencer admitted he had allowed his home to be used as a stash house. He later pleaded guilty to possessing Class A and B drugs with intent to supply and a charge of cultivating cannabis.
