Welcome to MTV Cribs, says show-off Newport drug dealer
The 31-year-old drug dealer from Newport made a video boasting about living the high life as he records his stay at the playground of the rich in the United Arab Emirates.
The MTV Cribs quip is a nod to the American television show that gave the viewer a look inside the homes of celebrities.
The judge who jailed the defendant for four years and eight months at Cardiff Crown Court said she had watched the video.
Samuels was able to fund such swanky hotels thanks to his managerial role in a criminal enterprise selling heroin, crack cocaine and cocaine.
'Welcome to this week's episode of MTV Cribs!' jokes Newport drug dealer Jerome Samuels as he takes us on a tour of his penthouse suite at a luxury Dubai hotel.

Lorenzo Musetti avoids disqualification after kicking a ball at a line judge
In the second set of his quarter-final against American Frances Tiafoe, Musetti booted the ball in frustration and it hit the woman, standing about three metres away, in the chest. Tiafoe looked stunned at the other end of the court and gestured towards the umpire, who eventually gave Musetti a code violation. Lorenzo Musetti received a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct after this incident 😳 #RolandGarros — TNT Sports (@tntsports) June 3, 2025 There were echoes of Novak Djokovic being defaulted at the 2020 US Open after accidentally hitting a female line judge with a ball. Tiafoe, the 15th seed, said: 'I mean, obviously he did that and nothing happened. I think that's comical, but it is what it is. 'Nothing happened, so there's nothing really to talk about. Obviously it's not consistent, so it is what it is.' Former player-turned broadcaster Rennae Stubbs wrote on X: 'Wow Musetti is very lucky to be still on court right now. You cannot kick a ball and it hit the lines person and not be defaulted.' Musetti, who reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon last year, won the match 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2 to progress to the last four at Roland Garros for the first time. Wow Musetti is VERY LUCKY to be still on court right now. You cannot kick a ball and it hit the lines person and not be defaulted. — Rennae Stubbs ♈️ (@rennaestubbs) June 3, 2025 He said: 'Yeah, I was a little bit, honestly, scared, because I really didn't want to harm nobody, of course. 'So I immediately went to the line umpire, and I of course said 'sorry', I apologise to everyone. 'It was right to have a warning, but I think the umpire saw that there was no intention about that, and that's why probably just, you know, let me continue my game.' The French Open is the only one of the four grand slams to still use line judges rather than electronic line calling.
