A 28-YEAR-OLD Plymouth woman who has been repeatedly caught in possession of a knife or blade asked a judge to give her as long a prison sentence as possible, so that she could access the mental health support she desperately needed.
Jessica Meehan, of no fixed abode, appeared at Plymouth Crown Court following an incident on May 5 this year. The prosecutor explained that police were alerted by 999 calls about a woman seen with a knife near Alma Road.
Officers attending saw Meehan heading towards the train station and stopped her. They carried out a search but she matched the description given by two members of the public. The court heard that a member of the public who had walked past Meehan later found the knife in question, hidden in a hedge.
