A pair of unlucky cocaine dealers have been sentenced after selling drugs to police officers in an undercover sting.
Victor Olaleye, 26, sold cocaine to officers on Low Friar Street, Newcastle, before putting them in contact with his associate, Adoniyas Michaels, also 26, from whom the plain-clothed team bought more of the Class A drug.
Michaels then made plans to sell further drugs to the undercover officers - all the while detectives at Northumbria Police were compiling evidence for a case against the undynamic duo and three others of the same crime organisation.
