Dopey drug dealer David Stevenson was arrested again after walking into his local police station with cocaine in his pocket while on bail for dealing cannabis, a court heard.
The 37 year-old jobless delivery driver of Dower Avenue, Wallington, Surrey dodged jail with a suspended sentence at Croydon Crown Court and was ordered to perform unpaid work.
Stevenson pleaded guilty to possessing 18 gms of cannabis, worth £80, with intent to supply and possessing a small quantity of cocaine in a Sutton street at 2am on November 23, last year.
He also pleaded guilty to possessing a small quantity of cocaine at Sutton police station (pictured) on January 21 and a further quantity of the drug plus cannabis at his home address on the same day.
The court heard night-duty CID spotted Stevenson rowing with another man in his car in the early hours of the morning.
Officers approached and the defendant admitted he was supplying cannabis to the second man and a police search found a small wrap of cocaine along with £435 cash.
While on bail for the offences Stevenson attended the ‘virtual court’ at Sutton police station’s video link facility and like everybody else was routinely searched and the cocaine found.
He was arrested and a later search of his home revealed two further small quantities of cocaine and cannabis.
Stevenson was sentenced to eight months’ imprisonment, suspended for two years, ordered to perform 180 hours community service work and pay £150 costs.
