When a Hartcliffe man had more than £200,000 taken from him it came to the attention of police. And when they searched Christopher White's home they found him with £651,000 worth of drugs, Bristol Crown Court heard.
As the search progressed police also found quantities of drugs cocaine and ketamine. White, 41, of Chelvey Close, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply the drugs and possessing criminal property.
Judge Euan Ambrose jailed him for 12 years. He told White: "Class A drug dealing causes enormous harm."
