    LONDON -- A British prosecutor said an elderly milkman supplied customers with cannabis as well as bottles of milk. Robert Holding, 72, delivered marijuana as he made his daily rounds in the town of Burnely, in northwestern England. Prosecutor Sarah Statham said Friday that Holding offered the drug to elderly customers suffering from aches and pain. She said the customers left Holding notes on their doorsteps to order the drug.
    According to Britain's dairy industry, around 1.5 million British homes have milk delivered by a milkman. Deliveries have declined over the last 20 years. Holding pleaded guilty to supplying the drug and was given suspended jail sentence of 36 months.

    3 years in prison?! Come on, he's 72 for fuck's sake. It's not like he was dealin' it to kids or anything, he was actually trying to help out those in need of it.

    That's bullshit, he was giving that away to help with people's pain and that's what he gets. I have to say, I would like to get cannabis delivered, though.

    He didn't go to prison

    "Suspended sentence" means you don't serve time unless you fuck up again

    I'm glad they let the man off with a suspended sentence.... his customers were old people like himself... and everybody knows the elderly are the wisest. lol. he was just broadening his services

    There was a dairy in the town next to mine that delivers milk. I had a milk man coming to my house up until my senior year in high school. The milk was soo fresh.

    just read about this, and jeez, I mean an old milk man selling to old people with pain issues, these are the people we are worried about in our communities?

    Seriously. In my home town, there used to be one before I was born. I would love to have the milkman come to my door, because right now I have none.
