Drug dealer's fiancée who helped run county lines racket avoids jail after falling pregnant with his child just weeks before her sentencing

A drug dealer's fiancee who helped him run a county lines trafficking racket has been spared jail after announcing she had become pregnant with his child - just weeks before she was due to be sentenced.

Bride-to-be Chloe Wishart, 25, and Peter Kelly, also 25, were arrested in July 2020 in a police swoop as they got off a train in Wigan.

Wishart concealed rocks of crack cocaine about her person before travelling 350 miles with Kelly to deal the items to addicts on the street.
