Internet swoons over drug dealer’s glamorous mugshot
A female drug dealer has won over an army of online admirers after police shared her glam mugshot.
Kirsty Sansum, 30, avoided jail after being caught with three kilograms of cocaine at a Motorway service station.
But social media users swooned over her when police shared her mugshot alongside her co-conspirators.
Dressed in a grey hoody, tattooed Sansum has her blonde hair tied into a top bun while she stares at the camera in the smoldering snap.
One admirer wrote: “She’s a looker” while another added: “A really attractive bunch – and easily recognizable. A happy ending for Xmas.”
Sansum and the man she was in the car with – John Rogers, 29 – were arrested at Strensham Services on the M5, just a few miles from Tewkesbury, Glos., on March 11.
Police discovered the drugs stashed in a carrier bag under the front seat of the vehicle they were in.
An investigation of their mobile phones revealed they had been working with Kingsley Williams, 28, and Aaron Russell, 30, to supply drugs.
All four pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine and were sentenced earlier this month, police said.
Rogers was jailed for five years and three months, Williams was jailed for six years and nine months and Russell was sentenced to six years behind bars.
Sansum was given a two year suspended sentence, with drug rehabilitation order for nine months and 100 hours unpaid work.
The judge also ordered forfeiture of $1,800 and a Rolex watch belonging to Russell under Section 27 of the Misuse of Drugs Act.
Detective Inspector Matt Phillips, of Gloucestershire Constabulary, said: “This was a significant conspiracy to bring thousands of pounds worth of drugs into our county.
“These drugs would have eventually ended up on our streets, bringing misery to the lives of our communities.”
