Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia: Authorities at a police station in Maroochydore, Queensland, unwittingly hired a concrete cutter with a 20-year amphetamine addiction to modify their evidence room.
Perth Now reports that while cutting a ventilation hole in an evidence room, 37-year-old Tony Jackson decided to help himself to the biggest bag of drugs he could find. The bag that he ultimately took contained 1925 tablets of ecstasy and 30 grams of methylamphetamine.
At the time of his arrest, Jackson was said to have sold most of the pilfered drugs, but kept enough himself to keep him awake for 21 days. The court heard that after his 3-week bender, Jackson booked himself into rehab for six months.
He was sentenced to three years jail.
