A drug-dealing dad was spared jail after vowing to turn over a new leaf and "to get my son back".
Joshua Edge has been addicted to Class A drugs for a decade and, during that period, he had previously been imprisoned for domestic violence and stabbing his girlfriend's dog. Despite his shady past, a judge offered him two choices today - prison or strict community-based orders.
Liverpool Crown Court heard how police stopped a black Ford Focus on East Prescot Road in Liverpool, at around 8.40pm on April 4, 2020 where Mr Edge was found in the front passenger seat. Mark Phillips, prosecuting, added that officers discovered two wraps of heroin, weighing 0.28g, and one wrap of cocaine, weighing 0.10g, totalling in an estimated value of £30 while searching the car, the Liverpool Echo reports.
