Crack cocaine dealer Reginald “Shaggy” Johnson has been arrested.
The drugs squad had been working to bring him to justice for five years and now knew he was going to prison for a long time.Middlesbrough drug dealer Reginald "Shaggy" Johnson and two more cogs in the town's supply chain have been jailed for a total of 12 years.
Johnson was a "prime mover" who employed and deployed runners in a crack cocaine "family business", Teesside Crown Court heard yesterday.
"I am satisfied that you were the leader of this enterprise," Judge David Bryant told him, jailing him for five years. "You had a flourishing retail business dealing in crack cocaine over a considerable period with a considerable number of customers."
He told Johnson's 33-year-old girlfriend and drug runner Leanne McCaffery: "Yours was a lesser role but you were an enthusiastic participant in this drug dealing business."
She was imprisoned for four years, and Rhaul Warren, 21, for three years. Johnson and McCaffery, both of Essex Street, and Warren, of Falmouth Street, all admitted conspiring to supply Class A drugs between August 15 and December 1 last year.
