[Sir Tigger KC]

No not me!    One of my tenants had a visit from the Boys in Blue recently and they tried to open the front door with their 'Big Red Key'!!      Anyway it seems that their actions were somewhat justified as they found £350,000 worth of Cocaine in the house!!      and it looks like that he will be a tenant of Her Majesty for some time to come!   

So I'm left with an empty house which has been left in a right state and a broken front door!    Does anyone know if there's any compo from the Police for this sort of thing or is it down to me and possibly my insurance company?   

[The Sheriff]

Just fix it up as best you can and then rent it out to another drug dealer. They'll be OK for the rent and the front door will come off much easier next time.

Thanks Uncle STEMO, I knew I could rely on you!! 

[the alarming man]

do you not do 'ad hoc' property visits??...as for compo I think you have two hopes and both not that good

[Crazycarzowner]

The only time I've known any compo given out by police is when they..........got the wrong door 

If a warrant is executed based upon reliable intelligence and a) illegal substances / property is found & b) offenders locked up I've never heard of a l/lord getting compensation for the mess left. Thats in my experience anyway, other forces may be different.

As STEMO says but make sure you negotiate at least a 15% cut of all profits 
That should pay for the repairs AND a nice little holiday somewhere 
Just make sure the dealer pays you in cash and don't tell the tax man

Yep I was there about 10 days before the raid and saw nothing untoward.    I'm also on good terms with the neighbours who would have let me know if they thought anything suspicious going on.   

He'd been there about a year, good job, nice girlfriend, good references etc etc

Its always the quiet ones...........

Highly paid job, anyway.

Perhaps you could do a more intensive search than the Police did, and find your compensation that way?

[The Sheriff]

I know a lad round here who deals in ermmmm.....supply and demand. His wife left him with five kids. He is a fantastic dad, always up and down the road to school, shopping for food, kids always spotless.........it takes all sorts....

[Crazycarzowner]

Found with £350k's worth, must be quite high up the chain too?

Absolutely!    I went there today for a quick look around for the first time and it dosn't look like they've had the floorboards up! 

[Sir Tigger KC]

Yes, I think that's why the neighbours didn't notice anything strange about him, as he wasn't dealing from the house. They also found 3 or 4 food blenders....

A drug dealer and a chef..... at least he worked hard.
