A 29-year-old woman from Douglas was given a suspended sentence this afternoon after pleading guilty to knowingly permitting intent to supply cocaine from her home.
Katie Cassandra Blaymire, of Spectrum Apartments, was sentenced to 22 months’ custody, suspended for two years.
She was also sentenced to seven days custody, also suspended for two years, for cannabis possession, to run concurrently.
Blaymire admitted finding a suitcase containing £7,560 worth of cocaine on top of a wardrobe in the house she shared with Ronald Justin Heald.
She said she had found the suitcase two days before police raided their home but had ‘foolishly turned a blind eye’.
Heald, 35, has admitted possessing cocaine with intent to supply and will be sentenced on November 5.
