Court House-07A woman who admitted being a regular contact for the domestic trafficking of methamphetamine pleaded guilty to two charges in the Christchurch District Court yesterday.

Phillippa Erin Sigvertsen, 27, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiring to supply methamphetamine on March 6 2014, and offering to supply methamphetamine between February and March 2014.

A charge of possession of a firearm, and one of possession of utensils for using methamphetamine were withdrawn by the Crown yesterday.

The summary of facts said Sigvertsen was found in a motel room in Blenheim Road with

a backpack containing 6.7mg of methamphetamine, and $7333 in cash.

Texts on her cellphone showed she was dealing in methamphetamine, and the summary said she was the regular contact for the dealers, and a point of contact for the collection and distribution of methamphetamine.

Judge Jane Farish remanded her on bail for a probation report and sentencing on December 9.
