Herbert, of Lonsdale Road in Notting Hill, London, pleaded guilty in May to two charges relating to the importation and supply of cannabis.

However, the 24-year-old denied being involved in commercial ***** of up to 132lbs (60kg) of the Class B drug at Lincoln Crown Court but the basis of his pleas were not accepted.

During a two-day trial of the issue, known as a Newton Hearing, in December, Judge Simon Hirst decided on the level of Herbert’s drug dealing.

Passing sentence Judge Hirst said he was “satisfied” Herbert had played a significant role in supplying cannabis and had sold at least 99lbs (45kg) for a commercial profit.

The judge told Herbert: “It is agreed you had a significant role on the basis you expected significant financial advantage. On occasions others were involved in the operation of returning and collecting cannabis.

“The level of the offending is so serious that there must be a sentence of imprisonment.”
