Drug dealers who ran a small business selling cocaine and cannabis avoided jail after more than a two-year delay in their case reaching court. Corey Evans and Dylan George, both 23, were found to be dealing class A and B drugs in Cardiff when they were pulled over by police.
The defendants' homes in Caerphilly were raided by police and up to £2,000 worth of drugs was discovered. A sentencing hearing at Cardiff Crown Court on Wednesday heard Evans and George were pulled over by officers in Salisbury Road, Cathays, on November 11, 2019, when they smelt cannabis coming from the vehicle.
Evans, the driver, was found in possession of £1,480 in cash which he claimed he was using to buy a bike. He and George were arrested and two phones belonging to Evans were seized, one of which kept ringing with customers attempting to buy drugs. George's phone showed evidence he was running the cannabis side of the business.
