A drug dealer who was caught at home with her supplies insisted she was not a key figure in the drugs world, a court was told yesterday.
Police armed with a search warrant went to the home of Kelly Poad, 26, said Dan Cordey, prosecuting at Teesside Crown Court.
Poad pointed out a bag containing cannabis resin and traces of it were found on a cutting board and a knife.
The police also found Ecstasy tablets and three bags of amphetamines.
Poad, of Myers Avenue, Hartlepool, was given a two-year Community Rehabilitation Order. She had pleaded guilty to possession of a Class B drug with intent to supply at an earlier hearing on September 19.
