Aden, from St Helens, bought three tablets for £10 each from Garside of Rainford on 1 May last year, a spokeswoman for the Crown Prosecution Service said.

He took money from Ms Allen and another person and paid Garside £30 before passing them the tablets, she said.

Ms Allen died in hospital after suffering an adverse reaction to a form of the drug known as Mastercard.

At the time of her death, police warned that the "small, pink figure of eight" ecstasy tablets, with the word Mastercard printed on them, "may contain up to double the dose" of MDMA.

Garside pleaded guilty to three counts of supplying class A drugs and one count of possession with intent to supply class A drugs.

Aden admitted two counts of counts of supplying class A drugs.
