Fridge full of son’s drugs

Pamela Anderson praises ‘innocent’ Wikileaks chief after visiting him in jail

- BY CHRIS HUGHES Defence and Security Editor

A PUSHER was jailed after his mum shopped him to police when she found his magic mushroom drugs in their fridge.

Spencer Six stored £1,770 of psilocin, the psychedeli­c property of the fungus, and £485 of strong Xanax sedatives.

The 28-year-old, of Swansea, was said to be suffering depression and wanted to self-medicate.

He admitted possession with intent to supply and got two years and seven months in jail. Pamela Anderson at Belmarsh prison, yesterday FORMER Baywatch beauty Pamela Anderson revealed her shock after visiting jailed WikiLeaks boss Julian Assange yesterday, declaring: “I love him, I can’t imagine what he has been going through.”

The actress first met Assange while he was holed up for seven years at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, to avoid extraditio­n to Sweden over three sex assault allegation­s.

He was dragged out last month and is serving 50 weeks in Belmarsh high security prison for violating his bail conditions in 2012.

Admitting it was “very difficult” to see Assange locked up, Anderson, 51, said: “He does not deserve to be in a supermax prison.

“He has never committed a violent act. He is an innocent person. He is a good man, an incredible person. I love him, I can’t imagine what he has been going through.”

The Swedish inquiry into the sex assault claims dating back to 2010, which Assange, 47, denies, has been dropped, because the country’s time limit for prosecutio­ns has expired.

Assange is still wanted in the US for questionin­g over leaks on his whistleblo­wing website.

Anderson added: “It was great to see him, but this is just misrule of law.”

She claimed Assange has no access to informatio­n and has not been able to speak to his children.

Revealing she felt sick, the star, draped in a shawl with writing scrawled across it, appeared to wipe away tears at one point.

“It is going to be a long fight,” she said. “He needs our support, so whatever anyone can do... maybe write to him.

“It is unfair. He has sacrificed so much to bring the truth out and we deserve the truth.”

Asked about the prison term Assange could face if extradited to the US, Anderson said: “We need to save his life. That’s how serious it is.”

She was joined at the South East London jail by WikiLeaks editor Kristinn Hrafnsson, 56.

After what he called their “first social visit”, Mr Hrafnsson said: “This is not justice, this is an abominatio­n. This must end, this will be a fight.” Assange in jail van
