LONDON - A 68-year-old British woman faces jail after being found guilty Wednesday of growing and possessing cannabis which she said was for medicinal purposes.
A jury at Carlisle Crown Court in northwest England took just 15 minutes to return their verdict on grey-haired Patricia Tabram, who claims she uses the drug to ease her depression and aches and pains from two car crashes.
Judge Barbara Forrester postponed sentencing so psychiatric reports could be prepared on the unlikely-looking dealer, who since her first conviction has become a focus for campaigners seeking to legalise the drug.
Tabram was arrested and charged after police acting on a tip-off found four cannabis plants growing in a wardrobe at her bungalow in the town of Humshaugh in Northumberland, northeast England.
What a world we live in, when a sick granny gets sent to jail for self-medicating. Britain must be swimming in reefer madness, if they managed to find twelve people willing to convict her.
Watch the interview and take note of the cowardly disclaimer at the end. Wankers.
