Drug dealer arrested after hiding cocaine inside a Kinder Egg

By Filipa Gaspar

A drug dealer has been jailed after hiding a Kinder Egg full of cocaine in his pocket.

Bodycam footage shows cops searching a car known to be involved in drug dealing.

Officers then spoke to Corey Sutton and found a Kinder Egg filled with small bags of cocaine during a search.

In the footage, Sutton blurted "It's not mine" to which officers from South Wales Police replied, "It's in your zip pocket."

One of the officers asked: "What is it?" and Sutton admits, "It's a Kinder Egg, boys."

Inside the Kinder Egg, there were 10 small bags with cocaine in them.

Sutton, 19, from Tonyrefail, Wales, was sentenced to two years and four months in a Young Offenders Institute following his conviction.

The sentencing took place on Wednesday, July 8, at Swansea Crown Court, where Sutton was found guilty of being concerned in the supply of cocaine, possession with intent to supply cocaine and possession of cocaine.

This follows officers being on a mobile patrol in Tonyrefail when they came across a car known to be involved in drug dealing.

Officers spoke to Sutton, who was searched under the Misuse of Drugs Act.

Officers also searched Sutton’s phone, where they found a substantial number of messages involving him in the supply of class A drugs.

Police Constable Adam Lewis said: “Corey Sutton was caught in the act while trying to sell his drugs onto the streets of Rhondda.

“He is now going to prison for almost three years – a very costly price to pay, which shows that dealing Class A drugs is just not worth it. Our officers will find you and you will go to prison.”
