Norton: So, there’s this guy, Peter Rogers, who’s a real piece of work. He’s 37 and just got caught again for dealing drugs. Can you believe he was using a bin on the street to stash his stuff?

The police had been watching him for a while. They finally caught him in October, and it wasn’t pretty. They found a bunch of amphetamine in that bin and 24 bags of cocaine in his car.

This isn’t his first rodeo either. He’s got a history, having been jailed before for drug offenses. The court gave him a hefty sentence of 76 months this time.

The prosecutor laid it all out. Rogers had access to three cars and was seen driving around like he owned the place. When they searched the bin, they found 15 to 20 bags of amphetamine.

And it gets worse. They found cash too—about £10,000 when they arrested him. The judge wasn’t impressed, saying he clearly hasn’t learned his lesson from past sentences.

Rogers pleaded guilty, but it seems like he’s just going to keep doing this. The judge warned him that if he gets caught again, he could be looking at a much longer sentence.
