Scarborough Cocaine Dealer Jailed for Three Years and Nine Months

A Scarborough cocaine dealer has again been brought to justice by North Yorkshire Police after being jailed for three years and nine months.

Simon Dennis Lambert, 42, of North Marine Road, was sentenced on Monday (13 January 2025) at York Crown Court after pleading guilty to possession of the Class A drug with intent to supply.

Lambert was arrested at his flat on 13 December 2024 after evidence was gathered that he was actively dealing again in the Scarborough area.

PC Rebecca Davison, from the Scarborough Response Team, said:

“Lambert had been released from prison on licence, yet this has not deterred him from immediately resuming drug dealing.

“He is now back behind bars where he no longer poses a danger to society and vulnerable drug users.”

Anyone with any information about suspected drug-related crime is urged to make a report via the North Yorkshire Police website or by calling 101.

Always dial 999 if an emergency response is required.

If you would prefer to remain anonymous, please call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or make a report online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org.
