'THIS IS FULL- SCALE SMUGGLING'
£3.5million stash of drug Spice found in two cells in crisis-hit prison.
5kg of synthetic cannabis was found in a cell in HP Northumberland which was seen to be worth around £3.5 million and the street value is seen to be ten times more than that. Officials say that it is the biggest drug find in the UK, this was able to take place due to the pre-preparation and organisation. Police are undertaking an investigation.
This relates to media as its opening the public to things that they may not find out otherwise as people don't have an insight to prisons. It may also appeal to some of the audience the news paper write for.
I chose this article because I feel that some people may be shocked from reading this article as they feel that prisons are made to prevent people from omitting crimes but a large drug smuggle happened within a prison. It shows the lack of power that authorities really have over inmates. To add, its not that surprising to me because things like this the government really know about but they act oblivious and now and again put it in the news paper.
Really interesting story, you could have compared it with the previous big drug find or one in another country.
