A BURGLAR initially spared prison for breaking into an Oxford home and stealing laptops has now been jailed after being caught with heroin, cocaine and cannabis.

Jonas Messacki was given a 12-month prison sentence, suspended for two years, last October after breaking into a home in Magdalen Road and stealing two laptops and a tablet computer.

Fingerprints found at the scene were confirmed to be 19-year-old Messacki’s, who admitted burglary and was sentenced at Oxford Crown Court in relation to the break-in in September 2013.

Dominic Benthall, prosecuting, told the same court on Tuesday that in March this year, Messacki was found in a VWGolf in Godliman Street, London, which smelled strongly of cannabis.

He added: “Officers noticed a strong smell of cannabis and a number of occupants. The front-seat passenger was this defendant.

“He was searched by the police constable and two wraps of white powder were found.

“When asked what they were he said it was not mine, it is not real.”

The drugs were later discovered to be 6.4g of cocaine – with a 63 per cent purity – and another 1.3g of cocaine split into six cling film wraps.

Police also found 0.4g of heroin in five wraps of cling film, while a 0.3g of cannabis was found on Messacki while in custody.

Messacki admitted possession of cannabis, heroin and cocaine as well as commission of further offences while being on a suspended sentence during a hearing at City of London Magistrates’ Court.

Magistrates committed him to Oxford Crown Court for sentencing because of his breach of a suspended sentence.

Representing himself, Messacki, of Courtville House, Third Avenue, Westminster, told Judge Peter Ross that he was not a drug dealer and was doing some football coaching at a youth club.

He said: “I have got a kid that I need to get out for. I have got a job.

“ I am just trying to change my life around for my kid’s sake. If you can make it possible that I can be there for him that would be great.”

But Judge Ross said because of the quantity of drugs and Messacki’s lack of commitment to his rehabilitation order he had no option but to jail him for a total of 14 months. He added: “The court warned you if you committed another offence during the course of the suspended sentence the likelihood is that the sentence would be activated.

“You have not committed yourself properly to the process of rehabilitation through supervision.”

Messacki was jailed for 11 months for breaching the suspended sentence and three months for the drugs, which will run consecutively.
