A pair of teenagers have been warned they face jail after they admitted dealing in cannabis and ecstasy.
Matthew Briggs, aged 18, of Station Road, Moretonhampstead, and the 17-year-old girl from Exeter, both pleaded guilty to drugs charges at their preliminary hearing at Exeter Crown Court.
They both admitted supplying MDMA and cannabis between January and June last year and possessing MDMA with intent to supply on June 7, 2014.
MDMA is the chemical name for ecstasy and it is now classified as a class A drug. Cannabis is classified as class B.
Judge Francis Gilbert, QC, refused an application from defence counsel Miss Emily Pitts, to send the girl's case back to the youth court.
He ordered probation pre sentence reports on both defendants and warned them that custody is the likely outcome.
He said:"These are serious matters and it is very likely they will receive immediate custodial sentences. There is a real risk of both receiving immediate custody."
