Young woman who splashed drug money on designer bags and luxury holidays jailed after empire falls

Danielle Stafford splashed out on designer bags, watches and plush holidays with funds from her drugs empire. Hull Crown Court heard the 29-year old, of Hallagate, Cottingham, made so much money by selling drugs that she bought a second house and lived without touching any of her job salary, reports Hull Live.

Stafford tried to pretend she was the victim of a shadowy Liverpool drug dealer and her expensive designer goods were fake. She also claimed luxury holidays had been gifts given to her by family members.
