"The sentencing of Kenny forms part of Project Medusa, which is our ongoing work to tackle suspected County Lines drug supply and the criminal exploitation of vulnerable people. We have disrupted a chain of supply and taken a significant quantity of drugs off the streets and further afield, preventing them from damaging communities.
"We will continue to respond to all information given on suspected drug supply, in Merseyside and further afield."
