Two Men Sentenced After Police Crackdown
Two men have been slammed with prison sentences after admitting to offences involving class A drugs. Lee Austin, 35, from Llantrisant, was handed three years and two months behind bars for his role in supplying cocaine and possessing crack cocaine.
Tegan Smith, 21, from Cardiff, received two years after pleading guilty to possession with intent to supply crack cocaine. Their sentencing took place at Cardiff Crown Court on Tuesday, February 10, 2026.
Police Sting Leads to Arrests
The case stems from a South Wales Police operation. Officers from the organised crime unit had been eyeing a red Ford Fiesta known to be linked with drug users in Talbot Green. The vehicle was tailed until it stopped on a dead-end street.
“There is no place in our communities for these drugs.”
“I’m pleased to see this sentence handed down and hope it gives Austin and Smith some time to reflect on their actions.”
