A Kendal drug dealer has been jailed for four years for drug supply offences.
Samuel Paisley, aged 25, of Lowgill, Kendal, was sentenced today (1st June) at Carlisle Crown Court for possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin, and driving while disqualified.
Paisley was arrested by officers in the Ambleside area on January 20 having been seen driving while disqualified in Kendal.
He was later linked to a stash of crack cocaine and heroin found in an area near to where he was arrested.
Detective Constable Tom Pearman, of South Cumbria Intelligence Unit, said: “This sentence sends a strong message that class A drug supply and the misery it inflicts on all involved will not be tolerated.”
Anyone with information on the supply of drugs is asked to contact police on 101 or contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111. You can also speak directly to a police officer or PCSO as well attending your nearest front counter police station.
