Boyd Docherty, 30, and Tyler Lintott, 26, two drug dealers who ran multiple county lines across Peterborough, have been jailed after a dramatic police raid caught on bodycam footage. On March 13, officers raided their home near Spalding, suspecting the pair of managing the “Kam,” “Bingo,” “Kai,” and “Rex” drug lines.
During the raid, police uncovered multiple mobile phones connecting the pair to drug trafficking operations, nearly £6,000 in cash, a samurai sword, and an air pistol. A separate raid at a property in Lincoln revealed crack cocaine and heroin worth thousands, stashed by the duo.
In court, Docherty pleaded guilty to the supply of crack cocaine, heroin, and cocaine, as well as possession of an offensive weapon, dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking, and other related offenses. He was sentenced to four years and four months.
Lintott, who also pleaded guilty to similar charges, including possession of criminal property and breaching a suspended sentence, was sentenced to five years and seven months.
Det Con William Kerslake emphasized that the operation was part of a broader effort to combat county lines drug trafficking and prevent the exploitation of vulnerable individuals.
