Drug dealing mum went back to crime after being threatened

A drug dealing mum went back to selling Class A's just months after getting a suspended prison sentence for the same behaviour.

Liverpool Crown Court heard Tracey Smith, 51, of Molyneux Avenue, Warrington, and her family were being threatened by her supplier after her previous arrest resulted in drugs being seized. The mum went back to supplying heroin and crack cocaine on the streets of Warrington because of the threats and on June 23 this year she was re-arrested.

Smith was jailed for three years on Friday, July 29, after admitting possessing heroin and crack cocaine with intent to supply and breaching her suspended sentence.
