CANADIANS GAOLED
Drug offences at Auckland (N.Z. Press Association) AUCKLAND, Nov. 3. For offering to sell 185 LSD tablets in Albert Park, Auckland, in July, two 18-year-old Canadians were sentenced to goal this week. Mr Justice Moller said the Court’s main purpose in sentencing LSD offenders was to deter others; this business had to be stamped out. Sandra Lorraine Mack, a laboratory technician, was sentenced to imprisonment for two years and nine months, and Grant Charles Keays, a leather worker, was sentenced to a 16-month term. When the two were on trial last month, evidence was given that Mack had received the LSD—coated on to vitamin C tablets—from Vancouver and arranged to sell them to an under-cover drug squad detective for $5OO. She mid Keays met the detective one night in Albert Park, where they were arrested.
