Rangiora woman admits meth dealing
A 25-year-old Rangiora woman is being assessed for home detention after admitting a charge of supplying the class A drug methamphetamine – an offence that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
In the Christchurch District Court Kelsi Anne Sherriff admitted charges of supplying methamphetamine and cannabis, and police believe she was selling the class A drug to pay for her own addiction.
The police summary of facts said when the police searched Sherriff’s room they found a set of scales, empty point bags, a notebook containing contacts, methamphetamine residue, and 9g of cannabis.
Sherriff, a shop assistant, was arrested in a series of drugs raids in Rangiora and Woodend in February.
Judge David Saunders granted bail and remanded Sherriff for sentence on August 3. He ordered a pre-sentence report to assess her suitability for a home detention sentence.
