Brace yourselves, fam. Jakub Cwiek, the crying drug dealer, got rumbled after a massive stash of drugs and cash was found at his parents’ house on Meadow Avenue, Loughborough. The 31-year-old tried to throw his phone into a canal to cover his tracks, but it didn’t work.
The feds kicked down the door and uncovered three kilos of cannabis worth £11k, a kilo of 83% pure cocaine worth up to £100k, and over £12k in cash. They also found designer gear like coats, trainers, and even a Rolex. Cwiek was cornered the next day and admitted working for an illegal drugs operation.
On Wednesday at Leicester Crown Court, he copped to supplying cannabis and cocaine, and acquiring criminal property. Judge Timothy Spencer KC wasn’t buying his sob story about mental health issues and being bullied. 'You were involved at a very high level,' the judge said, giving Cwiek six years behind bars. A Proceeds of Crime Act hearing will follow to see what can be confiscated.
Cwiek cried in the dock as his lawyer tried to paint him as a victim, but it didn’t fly with the court. 'It shows a certain lifestyle,' the judge said, dubbing the designer goods counterfeit claims unlikely.
