A Leeds drug dealer was turned in by his own mum who answered the door to police and pointed them to a bag of class As.
Brendan Marshall, 30, has been jailed for three offences of possession with intent to supply after being caught out when officers were shown into his home by his mother. West Yorkshire Police were executing a search warrant in Woodbridge Garth in Kirkstall in April 2020 when they were shown to the bag of drugs.
Prosecutor Bashir Ahmed told Leeds Crown Court on Friday: "His mum was present and showed the police in. Unprompted she showed the police officers a bag in the living room and said that it contained crack cocaine. The bag was seized and she was arrested and interviewed. She accepted telling the police the bag contained drugs but she said it had been left by some dangerous people who she was afraid of, hence she refused to name them."
