Harold Hill Drug Dealer Jailed for Five Years After £6,000 Drug Haul Seized


A county lines drug dealer operating out of Harold Hill has been jailed for more than five years.

Kyle Stanley, 29, of Clematis Close, was identified through a police investigation as responsible supplying drugs to vulnerable Class A drug users.

Working alongside Op Orochi, a specialist taskforce which aims to dismantle London drug networks, officers from Havering Safer Neighbourhoods carried out a warrant at Stanley’s home address in March this year. 

During the operation, officers uncovered more than £6,000 of cocaine and crack cocaine in his bedroom.

Stanley was sentenced to five years and seven months imprisonment at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Monday 9 November.

PC Russ Harley of Gooshays Safer Neighbourhood Team said: “This result shows the brilliant work being done local officers and specialist crime teams working together relentlessly to disrupt and dismantle organised criminal networks.

“Criminals like Stanley are individuals with no remorse for their criminality exploiting the most vulnerable people in the communities we live in to increase their own financial gain that ultimately cause multiple other issues in communities we live in.

“This investigation has resulted in a significant sentence that will see Stanley behind bars for a number of years. The message being clear we will continue to target individuals involved in the distribution and supply of illegal drugs and put them before court.”

The conviction comes as a result of extensive work officers and partners have undertaken in Harold Hill during the “Our Harold Hill – Clear, Hold, Build” initiative.

The strategy aims to tackle serious crime by disrupting organised crime groups, preventing them from re-establishing themselves, and addressing the underlying causes of crime to create a safer community.

The Metropolitan Police remains committed to disrupting organised crime and bringing drug dealers to justice.
