Sentence: 2 years and 4 months imprisonment

Emmanuel Mame was stopped by police while driving a Nissan Qashqai in Queens Drive on December 18, 2024, where officers found £3,510 in cash in the centre console. A strip search at the police station revealed multiple deals of drugs hidden in his pants, including white powder. A search of his home in Fleming Gardens uncovered MDMA, LSD tablets, ketamine, a stab vest, a lock knife, and scales, with the total street value exceeding £3,000. This is not his first offence, as he was previously convicted of possession with intent to supply heroin and cocaine in 2019.

Pleaded guilty at the first opportunity. Judge Rosalind Coe KC noted his previous convictions, including dealing class A drugs in 2019, his health difficulties, and his upbringing that made him vulnerable to exploitation. He is making efforts to work as a labourer and study to become a plumber.

Steven Mayfield

Causing serious injury through careless or inconsiderate driving

August 20, 2025

Sentence: 18 months community order; disqualified from driving for 15 months; ordered to pay £500 towards prosecution costs

Steven Mayfield, a junior school teacher from Gedling, was driving to work when he overtook an Audi at speed on Shelford Hill in Shelford on July 8, 2024. He pulled in too quickly, clipping a cyclist who was wearing reflective clothing and had reflective equipment. This caused the cyclist severe injuries, including a fractured right forearm that required surgical removal of a metal fragment believed to be from Mayfield's car. The victim spent two days in hospital, suffered sleep disturbances, and has been unable to cycle that route or engage in family activities as before.

Pleaded guilty to the offence. Judge Michael Auty KC described it as a momentary lapse in concentration but noted that the defendant should not have been driving at that speed. The defendant has one unrelated conviction from two decades ago.

Keeley Coleman

Fraud by abuse of position

August 20, 2025

Sentence: 2 years and 7 months imprisonment

Keeley Coleman, the manager of The Old Vicarage Care Home in Ollerton, stole more than £55,000 from nine vulnerable residents, including those with autism, learning disabilities, and complex needs, between December 2020 and October 2023. She abused her position by using bank cards belonging to residents and a pooled card to withdraw cash, keeping large amounts for herself while claiming insufficient funds for residents' needs. This led to residents relying on second-hand donations and staff providing their own clothing. She spent the money on personal items such as a car for her daughter, a caravan, and a hot tub. The fraud was discovered after an internal investigation following suspicions from the operations manager.

Pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud by abuse of position and one count of false accounting. Judge Philip Head noted that she minimised her offending and that her actions involved greed, despite personal financial struggles. She has previous convictions from before 2001, and her role as a full-time carer for her son with neurodivergent issues was considered.
