Man sentenced to prison for drug offences – Aylesbury & High Wycombe

Following an investigation by Thames Valley Police, a man has been jailed for drug supply offences in Aylesbury and High Wycombe.

Leam Valentine, aged 21, of Old Field, Little Milton, Oxfordshire, pleaded guilty to a count each of possession with intent to supply heroin, cannabis and cocaine, in a hearing at Aylesbury Crown Court on Thursday 7 November.

He also admitted being concerned in the supply of crack cocaine, heroin and cannabis, and possession of an offensive weapon in a private place.

At the same hearing, Valentine was jailed for five years.

Valentine was under investigation for the supply of crack cocaine and heroin in the Aylesbury area, and was arrested on 4 May while he was on court bail and electronic monitoring for the same offences in High Wycombe, when, on 30 September 2022, he was found in possession of 43 wraps of crack cocaine and 66 wraps of heroin.

He was charged with the offences on 5 May this year.

Investigating officer PC Gary Ratcliffe, based at Aylesbury police station, said: “We remain committed to tackling drug supply and will offer no respite for offenders.

“I hope that this conviction sends another clear message and reminder that if you are involved in the supply of drugs, you will be arrested, charged and sent to prison.”
