Bedworth man jailed for dealing cocaine

Cash, mobile phones, scales and other drugs equipment were also found.

Lucy McDermott, also of Leicester Road, was voluntarily interviewed by officers and both Callaghan and McDermott were charged with being involved in the supply of cocaine.

The pair were sentenced at Warwick Crown Court on Wednesday 19th January and Callaghan was given 30 months imprisonment while McDermott, 26, was given a suspended sentence.

Detective Constable Sian Cook said: “The misery drugs can cause is well known not just to those who take them but to those in the local community as well.

“Offending of this nature is not a victimless crime and there are numerous people across Nuneaton and Bedworth who are vulnerable because of their addiction to class A drugs.

“Our Proactive CID teams will relentlessly seek out individuals who continue to deal illegal drugs within our communities and proactively target people we believe to be involved in drugs as well as using the powers we have to make sure their activity is disrupted.

“I hope Callaghan’s sentence goes some way to reassuring the public we will thoroughly investigate all drugs activity so we can bring offenders to justice and continue to protect our communities from harm.”
