A court has heard the woman busted with a range of drugs during a police raid was “just experimenting” and had quit the habit.
Saraeah Theresa Hope Noter was caught with drugs and utensils when police raided a Dalby home on September 14.
Police prosecutor Chris Hutchins said the 23-year-old and a teenage boy were present at the home when authorities found 4.8g of ketamine, 34g of weed, 72g of illegal tobacco and multiple bongs.
“She said she knew it was tobacco and used it to mix with weed,” Sergeant Hutchins said.
The court heard the woman was employed as a clerk and had no criminal history prior to the drug bust.
Defence lawyer Michael McElhinney said his client resided in Brisbane and no longer took drugs.
He also said his client was unaware of what the white powder in the snap seal bag was and was “just experimenting”.
Noter pleaded guilty to two counts of possessing drugs, and one count each of producing drugs, unlawful possession of excisable goods and possessing utensils that had been used.
She was fined $800 and ordered to forfeit all items.
No conviction was recorded.
