Woman made crack cocaine

An Inverness woman who made her own crack cocaine also stored the narcotic for a friend.

But Inverness Sheriff Court heard police received intelligence about Michelle Lennan, 34, and raided her home in Balloan Road on December 13, last year.

They found several bags of a firm substance containing cocaine, with a street value of £3,940.

Also discovered was a bag of bicarbonate of soda which is used as an ingredient in crack cocaine.

She pleaded guilty yesterday to being concerned in the supply of the drug. Her co-accused Scott Smith, 38, described as an Inverness prisoner, admitted the same charge.

It was said Lennan was holding the drugs for Smith.

Sentence was deferred until May 11 and both were remanded.
