Deserving Of Their Punishments
The judge in charge of their case, Radford, went on to say, “The appellants were involved in the direct supply of cocaine for monetary gain, both to consumers and to the women they used in their prostitution business. Plainly, some of the women engaged and retained as prostitutes in the brothels, were addicted to cocaine and to supply such an addictive drug to them at cost price clearly encouraged that addiction. We have no hesitation in deciding that the overall sentences were based on the correct starting point, and the terms passed by the judge were not in any way excessive.”
