NSW man jailed for importing 25 litres of illegal drug GBL, claims it was bought for personal use * 1
    #22019013 - 07/30/15 09:41 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-07-29/nsw-man-jailed-importing-illegal-drug-gbl-claims-personal-use/6657896
A Queanbeyan man convicted of importing 25 litres of the illegal drug known as GBL has told a Canberra court it was for personal use.

Christopher Walter Thorn, 38, has been sentenced in the ACT Supreme Court to more than two years in jail.

Thorn told the court he bought the drugs from a Shanghai company because his former supplier in Sydney had become too expensive.

The court heard he would have paid $15,000 for the same amount in Australia, when the consignment only cost between $1,000 and $2,000 from China.

The court also heard GBL converts to the compound GHB, also known as liquid ecstasy, when it is consumed.

Thorn said he had lodged a bulk order in October last year because he feared the Chinese operation was closing and supplies might be cut.

Customs officials intercepted three separate parcels containing the drug, one of which was delivered by a police officer posing as a delivery man.

A search of his house also uncovered methamphetamines.

Thorn told the court he had no idea that what he had done carried a life sentence, and the three months he had already spent in jail were awful, terrible and frightening.

Chief Justice Helen Murrell told the court, this case was unusual because of the absence of personal benefit to the offender.

"He was involved in a one-man operation, designed and controlled by himself," she said.

And despite Thorn's admission that he had a recent relapse in drug-taking, Chief Justice Murrell told the court his prospects for reform were good.

"He now appreciates substance abuse has been very damaging to his relationship which he greatly values," she said.

"All these things are likely to greatly reduce the likelihood of relapsing by the offender."

Thorn will be eligible for release in February next year.
