Man tells German court he was selling marijuana to pad his retirement¹ income

The court found him guilty of drug dealing³ again. He has 24 prior convictions, and prosecutors⁴ wanted him to get prison time. The court made an exception because the man is 82 and in poor health.

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. Everyone deserves a second chance, but a German man will get his 25th. This week, a court found him guilty of drug dealing. He has 24 prior convictions. The man claimed he was selling marijuana to pad his retirement income. Prosecutors wanted him to get prison time, but the court made an exception because the drug dealer⁵ is 82 and in poor health. So the judge gave him a very last warning. It's MORNING EDITION.
