A war veteran was caught drug dealing AGAIN after police got a whiff of weed and 'literally used their noses' to get to his house.
Michael Kelly, who served in Afghanistan and Iraq, was given a second chance after previously being convicted of drug dealing in Liverpool. But he was rumbled when patrolling officers found him flushing drugs down the toilet of his home on Stanley Road, Bootle on November 16, 2022.
The 36-year-old appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on Wednesday May 24, where he pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply class A and B drugs, reports the ECHO. Prosecutor Derek Jones said: "Officers on patrol on Stanley Road could smell the strong smell of cannabis, and they literally used their noses and followed the scent, and traced it to the defendant's flat.
