At a previous hearing, Attreed pleaded guilty to charges of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs namely cocaine, possession with intent to supply Class A drugs namely the synthetic drug 2C-B, and possession with intent to supply Class B drugs namely ketamine.

Detective Constable Daniel Smith, of the Priority Crime Team based at Witney police station, said: “Finn Attreed attended the Wilderness Festival with the intention of making money from dealing drugs. 

“He travelled up from London to try his luck in our area, however security were wise to his actions and detained him whilst he tried to run his sales pitch to campers.

“I hope that he will use his time in jail to reflect on his actions.

“Thames Valley Police will not tolerate drug dealing within our communities. We will pursue dealers and will put them before the courts for them to decide their sentencing.

“Additionally, we will continue to work with our partners at Wilderness Festival and we would like to thank them for their swift actions which led to this conviction.”
