Dealers who ran 'drug call centre' found with stun gun

Two drug dealers involved in a County Lines drugs operation effectively ran a drugs call centre, a court heard.

Natasha Hanson and her accomplice, Khristopher Burton, ran what police said was known as the 'Paddy line', supplying Class A drugs from Merseyside to the Shrewsbury area during 2019 and 2020. Officers investigating the supply raided an apartment in Lockerby Road, Kensington, on January 17 last year.

Both defendants were present and in the pocket of Hanson’s dressing gown they found a mobile phone which was actively receiving calls and texts. Officers also found cannabis and behind a bath panel they discovered a stun gun on which their DNA was found.
