Drug Den Man Dodges Prison



A man who allowed his flat to be used as a base for cocaine dealers to prepare drugs to be sold on the streets of Mitcham - collecting £300 for his co-operation - dodged prison with a suspended sentence yesterday.

Window fitter Daniel Waters, 28, received twelve months' imprisonment, suspended for twelve months, was ordered to complete 150 hours community service, attend a Thinking Skills programme and pay £320 costs.

Judge Daniel Flahive told Waters at Croydon Crown Court (pictured): "You played an important role in the supply of drugs to the streets of Mitcham. They would use your premises to plot up their drugs into packages.

"You were clearly motivated by money and you were profiting from money made by drug dealers."
