A dealer disguised drugs as colourful sweets and chocolates to appeal to children. Elliot Kennedy, 34, ran a large-scale drugs factory churning out hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of "edibles" from his base.
A large volume were made to appeal to kids with packaging making them look like popular snacks - while Mescaline was also disguised as tortilla chips. Magic mushrooms, cannabis, cocaine and MDMA were also among the £121,000 worth of drugs seized when cops raided the property in March 2022.
Officers found a packaging and postage labels, including reels of customs declaration stickers, suggesting the drugs were being shipped internationally. Kennedy was arrested following a foot chase as he tried to jump out of a bedroom window at the drugs base in in Erdington, Birmingham.
