"It was my own mother who delivered me to the cops, it is unprecedented in the history of drug trafficking," almost strangled the defendant at his trial. It looks like Shakespeare or a Greek tragedy, at the limit a good old Les Frères Scott , but the scene takes place in Briançon (Hautes Alpes).

The police discovered at his home five kilos of resin in wafers, one hundred grams in barrettes, 100 grams of cannabis herb, enumerate our colleagues from Dauphiné Libéré. A discovery made possible thanks to the mother of the accused, who called herself the police on Thursday July 9 to alert them that she had discovered narcotics in her son's room, in the Toulouzannes district of Briançon.

"I'm not very smart"

The stocks found locally leave little room for doubt. Man is trafficking, not half. At his trial, the next day Friday 10, he will not deny by the way. "Never below 100 grams". The 35-year-old man is then tried in immediate appearance for drug trafficking, rebellion and incitement to rebellion, since he opposed his arrest and injured one of the police officers. He concedes: "I'm not very smart, I got caught with my first goods. I haven't sold yet. "

An admission that does not prevent him from being found guilty by the court and sentenced to four years in prison, including two years with a probationary suspension. He is obliged to fix his residence, find a job, take care of himself and compensate the three police officers for this stormy arrest.
