Liam Waldrum, 29, was given a 22-month prison sentence suspended for two years at the Court of General Gaol Delivery for being concerned in importing cannabis.[1][2] Isle of Man Today reported that Deemster Graeme Cook also imposed two years’ supervision.[2]

A brown parcel addressed to Waldrum’s home in Union Mills was intercepted at the Isle of Man Post Office on 8 May 2025 after a police dog indicated that it was suspicious.[1][2] It contained 4,007.5 grams of cannabis with a street value of £81,150, Isle of Man Today reported; the BBC put the value at £81,000.[1][2] A search of his home found a small amount of cannabis in a bedside table, and police seized his phone and weighing scales.[1]

Waldrum answered no comment in interview but later pleaded guilty to importing cannabis.[1] He told the court that he had not ordered the drugs and had agreed to let his address be used in exchange for an ounce of cannabis, worth about £500; the BBC reported the offer as £560.[1][2] His advocate said he worked as a supermarket lorry driver, saw his child twice a week, and would lose his job and home in prison.[1][2]
