A former DJ who helped a friend supply drugs was left owing £40,000 to dealers, a court heard. And police who zeroed in on him found he had £55,000 worth of drugs stashed at homes in Bristol and Banbury.
Frank Bastable accepted he was "banged to rights" when police came knocking at his door in July. Having been put in the back of a police car he tried to make a run for it, but was quickly detained.
Bastable, 27, of Causeway, Banbury, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of MDMA, cocaine and ketamine, as well as possession of the drugs with intent to supply, between July 2021 and July 2022. He also admitted escape from lawful custody.
