A woman who dealt cannabis to Alexandra teens as young as 13 has been jailed for 23 months. Occasionally other teens aged between 13 and 17 would contact Magon to buy cannabis. The cannabis was sold in $50 bags, each containing about 2g; teens often pooled money to buy it and share among themselves. Text messages and bank records showed Magon sold cannabis from February 1 to the time of her arrest on June 24. Between March 25 and June 24, direct payments to Magon’s bank account showed she sold cannabis to under-18s at least 19 times.
