Drug dealer texted police accidentally
Jack Johannesen, 23, from Sandy, Bedfordshire, has been sentenced to two years and 10 months in prison for drug dealing and breaching bail conditions. He was caught after mistakenly sending a group text message advertising his new drug line to the phone of a police officer who had previously been involved in his arrest. Johannesen was part of an organised crime group operating across Biggleswade and Sandy, dealing in cannabis, crack cocaine, and heroin. Police initially arrested him in October, recovering multiple phones, including one he had smashed, which revealed he had contacted over 400 numbers for drug deals. Following his re-arrest in November due to the mistaken text, officers seized more cannabis, nearly £2,000 in cash, and high-value designer goods.

Why a former MP accused of child sex offences breached bail - as he's released from custody
A former Liberal state MP accused of child sexual abuse has been released from police custody after his arrest for breaching bail. Rory Amon is awaiting trial after he pleaded not guilty to five charges of sexual intercourse with a person aged 10 to 14. The former NSW MP was required to report to the Day Street police station in Sydney 's CBD on Tuesday as part of his bail supervision conditions. But he was arrested about 10pm on Wednesday after attending the station one day late. The 35-year-old had simply 'forgotten' to attend, his barrister Dev Bhutani told Downing Centre Local Court on Thursday. Amon appeared on screen wearing handcuffs and a blue jumper from custody at Surry Hills police station. Prosecutors told the court they did not consider the breach serious, as Amon appeared the next day admitting fault and it was his first breach. His release was not opposed. Magistrate Daniel Covington ordered Amon to return to his previous bail conditions and be released from custody. 'Appearing the next day is not consistent with a person who is a flight risk,' the magistrate said. A stony-faced Amon walked out of the police station about 5.30pm on Wednesday, flanked by his brother and mother, as he was surrounded by waiting journalists. He refused to answer questions as to why he forgot to check in for bail. He will face a trial in February 2026 to contest accusations he abused a teenage boy before entering parliament. Amon is accused of masquerading as a 17-year-old after matching with a boy on a website in mid-2017. Prosecutors allege the boy, then 13, said he was 15 and later agreed to meet in person. Amon insisted on meeting in a private place and led the 13-year-old to a bathroom in a car park where the sexual assaults occurred on two separate occasions, prosecutors allege. At the time, Amon was a local councillor and later rose to win the safe Liberal seat of Pittwater on Sydney's northern beaches. The complainant, now aged in his 20s, alleges Amon continued to send him explicit images until he was charged in August 2024. Amon was elected to the NSW parliament in March 2023 and was the opposition spokesman on youth issues at the time of his arrest. He resigned soon after, with a subsequent by-election taking the seat out of Liberal hands for the first time in 50 years. 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) National Sexual Abuse and Redress Support Service 1800 211 028
