Drug Manufacture Offence - Eligible for Parole Immediately following Sentence

TP was charged with ‘Knowingly take part in the manufacture of a prohibited drug’, contrary to s 24(1) Drug Misuse and Trafficking Act 1985.

Chris Cole represented TP and the matter came before the Parramatta District Court. The matter then proceeded to Sentence where submissions were made and a psychological report was tendered. His Honour Sentenced TP to 3 years 7 months imprisonment with a non-parole period of 2 years 5 months, commencing from the date of arrest. This meant TP was eligible for parole at the time of Sentence.

This is a great outcome for TP as it marks the completion of his custodial Sentence.
