A dealing dad imported a party drug into the UK from China over the internet.
Three-time convicted dealer Simon Rogers, from Formby, was this week jailed for four-and-a-half years after "reverting to type". His latest conviction saw him hide nearly £30,000 of heroin and cannabis in his own children's backpacks in a desperate attempt to avoid being caught red-handed by police.
The ECHO can now reveal how the 40-year-old previously ran an intricate drug importation business from his prison cell with the help of his "besotted" NHS worker girlfriend. Hayley Hughes, a university graduate who worked as an occupational therapist at Broadgreen Hospital, took instructions from inmate Rogers on how to import the illegal designer drug M-Cat from China and India.
