A 40-year-old woman from Douglas has been jailed for two and a half years after police found 13 ecstasy tablets hidden in her bra.
Dawn Diane Neeson, of Clifton Terrace, pleaded guilty to a charge of possessing the class ‘A’ drug with intent to supply.
Neeson told police that she had thought the drugs were legal highs and that she only supplied friends, not making any profit from them.
She was arrested on August 21 at the Railway pub and a search at police headquarters found the 13 tablets in her bra.
The tablets were tested and confirmed as being MDMA, ecstasy tablets known as ‘London Undergrounds’.
In a basis of plea, accepted by the court, Neeson said that, although she thought they were legal highs, knowing the person she had bought them from, she should have suspected that the drugs were illegal.
