Mary Jane & the Milkman
Robert Holding seemed a kindly milkman who was attentive to his elderly customers as he delivered their daily pints.
To the less casual observer – specifically, a surveillance team from Lancashire police – Holding, 72, turned out to be a drug dealer who was supplying cannabis from his milk float to an elderly clientele.
His customers, who smoked the resin to relieve their aches and pains, would leave notes with their empty milk bottles to say how much of the drug they required. His reputation as a drug dealer spread rapidly among 17 of his customers in Burnley, Lancashire.
When detectives searched Holding's home last July they were astonished to find wraps of cannabis resin stashed among the eggs in his milk crates.
Today at Burnley crown court, Holding was given a 36-week jail sentence suspended for a year after he admitted possessing and supplying the drug.
