A Horfield man dealt cannabis so long ago by the time he was sentenced at court he was a changed person. For reasons unclear it took two years to deal with Anthony Lumber, who was caught with cannabis in April 2021.
The 29-year-old, of Eden Grove, pleaded guilty to possessing cannabis with intent to supply. Judge Martin Picton handed him 15 months' jail suspended for 12 months.
The judge told him: "Dealing drugs is a serious crime and that's why the sentencing guidelines indicate a starting point of a year. You've turned your life around in two years....don't come back."
