Suspended Sentence in Illegal High Case
Raquel Simpson and David James defended Sheena Jessop at Bolton Crown Court. Ms Jessop was charged alongside Paula White after the largest ever UK police investigation into the mail order trade of ‘legal highs’. They were part of an organisation which sold drugs worth more than £3m.
Although the legal high outlet was set up as a legitimate business, the products were rendered illegal in 2010.
Ms White was jailed for nine years. Ms Jessop received a two-year sentence, suspended for two years.
