A "prolific" drug dealer has been jailed after she was spotted acting suspiciously.

Tunbridge Wells Community Policing Team stopped a BMW on Silverdale Road and spoke to Lucia Manole on August 23.

A search of the vehicle revealed Manole, 28, was carrying 18 wraps of cocaine and £80. Both were seized along with the BMW.

Officers searched her home in Liptraps Lane and a second house in Madeira Park led to seizure of a mobile phone and documentation related to supplying Class A drugs.

Manole was later charged with possession of cocaine with intent to supply and possession of criminal property, namely £80.

The 28-year-old pleaded guilty at Maidstone Crown Court and was sentenced on Tuesday to two years and three months in prison.

District commander for Tunbridge Wells, Ch Insp Peter Steenhuis said: "Evidence on this woman’s phone and at her home address indicates she was a prolific drug dealer.

"Her actions will have caused misery amongst the vulnerable within our community and their families, and she should be thoroughly ashamed.

"It is only right she has been jailed for her criminal behaviour."
