Man and woman sentenced for drugs offences in Crewe

Two individuals have been sentenced for drugs offences in the Crewe area.

The pair appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday 3rd July 2026.

Joshua Fletcher, 31, of Earle Street, Crewe, was sentenced to five years and seven months (five years and 219 days) after pleading guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine, ecstasy, cannabis and ketamine.

Meanwhile, Georgina Tomkinson, 30, of Davenham Crescent, Crewe, was sentenced to 25 months suspended for two years after pleading guilty to possession with intent to supply cocaine and cannabis.

Cheshire Police commenced an investigation into the supply of class A and B drugs in the Crewe area following intelligence that Fletcher was involved in selling cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy and cannabis between February and June 2025.

In February 2025, a Snapchat account appearing to belong to Fletcher was used to advertise drugs for sale, however at the time Fletcher was in prison.

Fletcher was released from prison on 14 March 2025 and just one day later, another Snapchat account was identified as belonging to him. He even posted a picture of himself as well as his prison release papers.

Further accounts were identified which showed evidence of drugs supply, including posting price lists for cocaine. 

In June 2025, a warrant was executed at Fletcher’s home address. A mobile phone was seized which suggested evidence of the supply of drugs.

Intelligence linked Fletcher to Tomkinson, and her address was also searched in November 2025. Cannabis and white powder were seized, as well as various mobile phones and a paper list of names and numbers. Messages on the phones suggested involvement with the supply of drugs.

Both individuals were subsequently charged.

DS Williams said:

“Fletcher clearly didn’t learn his lesson, posting about his release from prison on social media along with clear evidence of selling drugs.

“But he’s now behind bars after a short spell back in the community.

“Both him and Tomkinson underestimated the lengths our officers go to in order to identify individuals intent on blighting our streets with illegal drugs and making sure they are brought before the courts.

“Anyone with information about drug-related activity in their area should contact Cheshire Police by calling 101 or reporting through our website.”
