An Oldham man has been jailed for possession with intent to supply class A and class B drugs.

Jack Stockwell, 22, of Raleigh Close, has been convicted at Manchester's Minshull Street Crown Court and sentenced to five years in prison for possession with intent to supply class A and class B drugs as part of a county lines drug operation.

Led by detectives from Greater Manchester Police, the investigation saw Stockwell arrested on 11 March 2022 at his home address, on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs. 

DC Kavita Young, of GMP’s Oldham’s Complex Safeguarding Team, said: “This investigation and subsequent conviction has shone a light on the recent work of our Unit and our commitment to securing the best possible outcomes.

“If you have any information regarding county lines and drug dealing, you can call GMP by dialling 101 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
