LONDON (AFP) - A former primary school teaching assistant who admitted supplying cannabis to her son and daughter so they would not seek drugs from street dealers has been ordered to carry out 200 hours of community service but spared jail.
Nicola Cooper, 43, of Ixworth, Suffolk, told a magistrates' court in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, Tuesday that she and her partner did not want the children, aged 18 and 20, to be lured into using harder drugs.
Cooper, who made the admission after police found 116 gms of cannabis resin worth around £200 at her home, resigned from her job at a primary school near Bury St Edmunds after being charged.
The judge told the court he had at first considered giving Cooper a suspended jail sentence but had chosen a community service penalty instead.
Her partner, Ian Leppard, 51, said: "We didn't want them to hide it, but told them that it was not big or clever and they should be responsible. We made a family decision that they should not go around shouting about it.
"Cannabis was something we just had in the house. We have no idea how the police became involved."
