‘Influential’ Pembrokeshire drug trafficker Maximus Goldsworthy jailed

Maximus Goldsworthy, aged 22, of Fishguard, was arrested four times between 2021 and 2023, each time being found with large amounts of cocaine, cannabis and MDMA and cash.

Dyfed Powys Police said that following an extensive investigation, Goldsworthy was charged with being concerned in the supply of cocaine, possession with intent to supply cocaine, possessing criminal property (£8,100 cash), possessing criminal property (£4,983.35 cash), possessing a loaded imitation firearm, possession with intent to supply a class B drug – cannabis (x3) and possession with intent to supply a class A drug – MDMA.

Dyfed Powys Police say that thanks to the strength of evidence gathered during police enquiries, Goldsworthy admitted all offences.

He appeared at Swansea Crown Court on Thursday, 14 September where he was sentenced to a total of four-and-a-half years in prison.

Detective Constable Emma Morgans from Dyfed Powys Police said: “This was an excellent result thanks to the determination of officers in examining several years’ worth of movements, digital exchanges and financial transactions made by Goldsworthy.

“This offender was highly influential in supplying illegal drugs into Pembrokeshire, and we hope this work will have disrupted the availability of these substances.”
