✨ Secret Life Unveiled! ✨
You’ll never guess what one dad from Newport was hiding! Graham Price, 36, was living a life unbeknownst to many, with £81,000 in cash and a Rolex worth £40,000 tucked away in his home. His unexpected secret came to light when police executed a surprise raid on June 3rd, uncovering one-and-a-half kilos of cocaine along with the piles of cash.
Despite the evidence, Price claimed that he was merely holding onto the drugs, cash, and lavish watch for others. A court hearing revealed these shocking finds, which included a kilogram block of cocaine, Nokia and Google phones, and large weighing scales.
An officer testified that the wholesale value of the seized cocaine ranged between £24,000 and £31,000, and if the empty packages found had contained cocaine, they could have been valued between £32,000 and £42,000!
Price, who had reprimands and cautions to his name but no prior convictions, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply class A drugs and two counts of possessing criminal property. His defence revealed he wasn’t a drug user but described him as an “intelligent man” living a double life. Even his 14-year-old son penned a heartfelt reference in his defence.
Judge Daniel Williams remarked on the complexity of Price’s life before sentencing him to four years and four months in prison. It’s a dramatic end to a story that leaves more questions than answers! What else do you think was going on in Graham’s ‘secret life’? 🤔💭
