[2012] EWCA Crim 3193
Although hearsay evidence had been wrongly admitted, an offender's conviction for producing a Class B drug, namely cannabis, was safe where the other evidence before the jury had been extremely strong. His sentence, however, and that of his co-accused were reduced to reflect the scale of the operation and positive character references.
