She was placed into the police car, where officers found .5 grams of cocaine in her bag.

The court heard Coleiro, a former student at Mt Maria College and a first-year hairdressing apprentice, has sworn off drugs since the incident and saw it as a “stupid decision.”

Magistrate Trevor Morgan wondered aloud whether he could include a ban from that pub in the teen’s good behaviour bond, and Coleiro assured him it wasn’t necessary as management had already imposed a lifetime ban.

She was put on a $400 good behaviour bond for nine months.

No conviction was recorded.
