Two men from Carmarthenshire have been jailed after being caught supplying Class A drugs.

23-year-old Jac Cadman and 31-year-old Jamie Cook, both from Ammanford, were identified when two officers on mobile patrol in Blaenymaes, Swansea on Friday March 13 spotted that the vehicle they were in was registered and insured to a provisional licence holder.

Cadman and Cook’s suspicious behaviour within the vehicle prompted the officers to carry out a Misuse of Drugs Act search, during which a snap bag containing white powder was found in Cadman’s pocket, alongside £470 in cash and bank cards belonging to other people. Four further snap bags of white powder were found in Cook’s possession, along with £880 in cash. The white powder was later confirmed to be cocaine.

Three phones were also recovered, containing messages further tying the pair to the sale of Class A drugs.

Jac Cadman pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply cocaine, being concerned in the supply of cocaine and possession of criminal property. Jamie Cook pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply cocaine and possession of criminal property.

Jac Cadman has been sentenced to 28 months in prison. Jamie Cook has been sentenced to 40 months in prison.

Sergeant Luke Tucker said: 

“Both Jac Cadman and Jamie Cook will have felt great when they thought that their Class A drug dealing was going to net them a quick windfall. However, unfortunately for them, that feeling was quickly shattered when officers caught them in the act.

“Both will now follow in the footsteps of other drug dealers who have plagued the streets of Swansea as they rightfully head to prison.”
