A man who was found to have numerous weapons as well as over £500,000 worth of drugs has been jailed

Duarte De Jesus, 44, of Langley Park Road was sentenced on Monday, June 1 to five years and five months at Aylesbury Crown Court.

At the same hearing, De Jesus pleaded guilty in the morning of the trial to: 

  • Three counts of possession with intent to supply a controlled class A drug, namely cocaine, MDMA and other (Psilocin and Psilocybin) 
  • Two counts of possession with intent to supply a controlled class B drug, namely cannabis and cannabis resin 
  • One count of possession with intent to supply a controlled class C drug, namely etizolam 
  • One count of possession of a firearm of a length less than 30cm/60cm 
  • One count of possession of an offensive weapon in a private place 

Just before midnight on June 12, 2025, officers from Thames Valley Police’s Rural Crime Team attended Langley Park Road for an unrelated offence, where De Jesus was subject to search of his caravan. 

Following this, offices seized a viable firearm, a zombie knife and a significant quantity of class A, B and C drugs, including 2.37kg of cocaine, 114g of MDMA and 8.23g of cannabis, totalling with a combined street value of £516,565. 

The investigation was then passed onto the Buckinghamshire Priority Crime Team, which led to De Jesus being arrested the following day (June 13) and subsequently charged on June 14. 

Investigating officer Detective Constable Leena Khan of the Buckinghamshire Priority Crime Team said: “Firstly, I would like to thank the Rural Crime Team and the Buckinghamshire Priority Crime Team for their joint efforts in this investigation.
