Mum found with 147 wraps of cocaine freed by judge after it took two years to charge her

A mum-of-two involved in trafficking high purity cocaine has been freed by a judge who slammed prosecutors for taking more than two years to charge her.

Sian Finney, 22, was caught "red handed" in February 2020 after police searched her home and seized 147 wraps of cocaine, along with scales, cash and mobile phones.

However, Finney initially claimed she was merely hooked on the drug herself and was not involved in any supply, a defence which contributed to her not being charged until June of 2022.
