| Can't Run From The Law: Oliver-Christie |
The drug-dealing son of former sprint star Linford Christie has picked-up yet another prison sentence while in the middle of serving one.
Liam Oliver-Christie, 33, appeared via video link from HMP Highpoint, Suffolk, where he is serving time for dealing crack cocaine and heroin.
At Isleworth Crown Court he pleaded guilty to possessing 45.2 grammes of cocaine, with intent to supply, in Goldhawk Road, Shepherd’s Bush on June 1, last year.
Christie, of Lakeside Road, West Kensington also admitted possessing crack cocaine on the same occasion.
He received four years imprisonment for the cocaine supply charge, with one month concurrent for possessing crack.
The good news for Christie is the court decided not to add it to the sentence he is already serving, but allow him to serve both concurrently.
He committed the new offences while on bail for other drugs charges, for which he received four years imprisonment in September, last year.
On that occasion he pleaded guilty to possessing crack cocaine, with intent to supply, on November 9, 2017 and possessing heroin, with intent to supply, at his home address on the same day.
In 2015 he received two months imprisonment, suspended for twelve months, when police found heroin and crack cocaine, worth £1,400, hidden under the floorboards of his council flat.
Dad Linford won gold for Great Britain in the 100m at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona and was also victorious in the event at World, European and Commonwealth championships.
Liam’s mother is former typist Yvonne Oliver, who had a short relationship with the athlete and he has a twin sister Korel.
