A Leeds dealer has been told he must wait to be sentenced, while the purity of his drugs are tested.

Drake Glynn, who is being held on remand at HMP Leeds, appeared in court this week where he was due to be sentenced for intending to supply cocaine and ecstasy, and possessing criminal property.

But after the case was outlined by the Crown, Judge Simon Batiste stopped the proceedings after questioning the purity levels of the drugs, claiming it “has the potential to make a difference” to the 31-year-old’s overall sentence.

After being told there were no records of the drugs being tested, he adjourned the case until next month in order to have them fully analysed.
