Man jailed for dealing drugs in Telford
A man has been given a two-year prison sentence after he pleaded to guilty to supplying drugs in Telford.
Stefan Farmer, of Arleston Avenue in Arleston, Telford, was given the sentence at Shrewsbury Crown Court on Tuesday, 20 January, after previously pleading guilty to possessing a controlled drug (class B) with intent to supply, and acquiring criminal property.
Officers arrested the 34-year-old in February 2025 after gaining a warrant for Farmer’s arrest.
He was located at his address, and following a search of the property officers discovered a quantity of cannabis buds in an outbuilding, all vacuum packed and sealed, ready to be sold.
Officers also discovered scales, zip-bags and £50,000 in cash, all linked to drugs supply.
Detective Sergeant Andy Pond said: “I welcome the custodial sentence that has been handed to Farmer, which has taken a drug dealer off the streets of Telford, and protects our communities.
“West Mercia Police will not tolerate this activity and we would urge anyone with information about the supply of drugs to please contact us.”
