A shocking revelation about a prolific drug dealer has come to light, and it's a story that needs to be told. This individual, Richard Morgan, has been a key player in the county lines drug trade, supplying dangerous Class A substances across Wiltshire and Bath. But here's where it gets controversial...
Despite being arrested and jailed previously for drug dealing, Morgan continued his illegal activities, showing a blatant disregard for the law and the harm he caused. He was recently arrested again, this time for supplying crack cocaine and heroin between April and September 2025.
During the investigation, police uncovered a clever disguise used by Morgan and his associates. They attempted to hide their drug trade under the guise of selling t-shirts, a tactic known as the 'Professor' line. However, a search in Church Road, Bath, led to the seizure of phones that connected Morgan to this operation.
PC Guy, from Wiltshire Police, described Morgan as a classic county lines drug dealer, emphasizing the significant harm these individuals cause to communities. "He didn't learn his lesson," PC Guy stated, highlighting Morgan's persistence in continuing his illegal activities post-release.
Morgan was charged with supplying Class A drugs and was sentenced to seven years in prison at Swindon Crown Court. PC Guy expressed gratitude to the Met's Op Orochi team and the South West Regional Organised Crime Unit for their support in bringing this prolific dealer to justice.
This story serves as a reminder of the ongoing battle against drug trafficking and the importance of community awareness and support. It also raises questions about the effectiveness of rehabilitation and the need for stricter measures to deter repeat offenders.
