🚨 Busted! 🚨 A 20-year-old from Cardiff landed in hot water when his side hustle went south. Tyler Beer was running a drugs line, dealing cocaine and cannabis, and sending out bulk ads to potential customers. But here’s the kicker: he got caught after using his drug phone to book taxis! 🚖
Police nabbed him after linking two seized phones to a number advertising the drugs. Beer had the habit of topping up his phone’s credit at local shops, which was caught on CCTV. The final blow came when his girlfriend’s phone revealed messages with the drugs line number, saved as two love heart emojis!
When officers turned up on Beer’s doorstep, he didn’t stand a chance. They found £235 in cash, cannabis wrapped in tin foil, scales, zip lock bags, and more. Despite being tight-lipped during the police interview, Beer was cornered with charges and later confessed to his role in supplying class A and B drugs.
The court heard how he got into dealing to fund his own drug habit. However, with one previous conviction already on his record, the judge wasn’t having it, sentencing him to two years and four months in prison. 📜🔒 The judge emphasised the devastating impact of drugs on individuals and communities.
It’s a classic tale of crime not paying off. Stay tuned for more jaw-dropping stories from the courts! 💬 #CrimeNews #CardiffNews #DrugsBust
