Drug Dealer Danielle Stafford Jailed for Seven-and-a-Half Years
Danielle Stafford, 29, from Hallgate in Cottingham, has been locked up for seven-and-a-half years after pleading guilty to four serious drugs offences.
Drugs, Cash and Designer Gear Seized in Police Raid
The court heard Stafford admitted to supplying cannabis, crack cocaine, heroin, and possessing criminal property. This followed a police probe launched in May 2020, triggered when officers stopped her erratic driving near Priory Road, Hull.
Police found a stash of drugs including crack cocaine and cannabis in her car. A subsequent search of her Hallgate home uncovered £30,000 in cash, designer clothes, jewellery, and more drugs.
Community Rejoices as Dealer Is Taken Off Streets
“Danielle Stafford had fallen into a life of crime which caught up with her the night officers pulled her over for erratic driving,” said the lead investigator.
“Her drug dealing impacted her neighbours and community. Now she’s behind bars and can no longer blight their lives. This sends a strong message—we will take action against drug dealers in our area.”
Police Urge Public to Report Drug Crime
The officer urged locals to report drug issues: “If you have concerns about drug crime, please get in touch. Your information could help us target the worst offenders and protect communities for good.”
