A young father got mixed up when he was getting his toddler ready for school – and send the child off with the wrong rucksack.
Sadly for Lee Webb, 23, the rucksack contained a ‘drug dealer’s kit’ – a tupperware box filled with cocaine, banned stimulant mephedrone as well as drug paraphernalia such as scales.
Staf at the Smarty Pants nursery immediately alerted police, who took possession of the powder, a spoon, and two knives.
Father-of-two Webb, a tree surgeon, admitted possessing Class A and B drugs and was jailed for four years.
Jduge James O’Mahony told him: ‘You sent your three-year-old son to nursery with a rucksack containing a significant quantity of Class A and B drugs.
‘In effect, you sent your son there with a drug dealer’s kit!
‘Your stupidity put children at risk and I consider the potential exposure to children of these drugs is so serious only an immediate custodial sentence can be justified.’
