A guy who tried to hide several grams of cocaine under his foreskin has been jailed.

Joshua Hare was found naked – and with no other place to hide his drugs, tucking them in his foreskin seemed the only option. Of course it did, why wouldn’t it?

Police were called after a member of the public spotted the 24-year-old making a nuisance of himself in a carpark outside Homebase at around 8.30am.

He put up a little bit of a fight with officers and was arrested and taken to hospital on June 17, the court heard.


During the trial Keith Ballinger, prosecuting, described how the wrap of drugs slowly ’emerged’ from Hare’s genitals.



Sorry. Just try not to picture it.

Hare pleaded guilty to being in possession of 7.2 grams of cocaine and failing to surrender to bail and was jailed for a total of 12 weeks.

The substance stashed by Hare’s manhood was later tested and confirmed to be cocaine.

Defending, Nick Redhead said Hare has a troubled background and has had problems with drugs and alcohol. He is currently being assessed for mental health issues.

Following the offence, Swindon Magistrates activated a 12-week suspended sentence Hare had previously been given for aggravated taking of a vehicle without consent, and added a £115 victim surcharge.

For the possession of a Class A drug Hare, of no fixed abode, was ordered to spend one week in custody which he will serve alongside the 12 weeks.
