Three jailed for selling heroin and cocaine in 'Dizzy' drug line in Kidderminster
They'll spend a combined 7 years behind bars.
A man and a woman have been sentenced for supplying cocaine and heroin as part of the ‘Dizzy’ drug line in Kidderminster.
Another man has been sentenced for permitting production on a premises of Class A drugs.
Their sentencing follows a lengthy investigation into the drugs line that has been operating in the town, concluding with warrants being executed at addresses on Eddy Road and Park Street in Kidderminster.
On 3 April officers entered the property on Eddy Road in Kidderminster and found Donito Barrett, 21, and Kayley Cooper, 42, in possession of a quantity of Class A drugs with the intent to supply. Both were arrested and bailed.
On 28 June officers entered the property on Park Street in Kidderminster to find Kayley Cooper, Donito Barrett, and 43-year-old Shane Eccles inside with a number of wraps and packages of Class A drugs, burner phones and other paraphernalia.
The three were sentenced at Worcester Crown Court last Friday (15 December).
Kayley Cooper, of Eddy Road in Kidderminster, was sentenced to 3 years.
Donito Barrett, of no fixed abode, was sentenced to 4 years.
Shane Eccles, of Park Street in Kidderminster, was given 9 months suspended sentence.
DC Modley from North Worcestershire Neighbourhood Crime Fighting Team said: “The warrant was part of on-going work to stop the distribution of drugs in Kidderminster. This has been a long investigation, and we are pleased with the sentences given”.
DC Laver added: “The impact of drugs is felt in many ways, such as the exploitation of vulnerable people and an increase in other criminality or anti-social behaviour. Drugs bring nothing but misery into our communities and we will not stop doing all we can to bring these people to justice”.
