Drill Star's £153k Cannabis Profit Seized

Rapper Digga D, real name Rhys Herbert, faces a significant financial penalty following his drug conviction. A Proceeds of Crime Act hearing at Lincoln Crown Court on Friday confirmed that the financial benefit from his cannabis dealing activities amounted to £153,000. Herbert, who is 25 years old, was previously jailed for three years and 11 months in January 2025. His sentence stemmed from charges related to importing and selling approximately 99lbs (45kg) of cannabis on a commercial scale. This latest hearing aimed to finalize the recovery of assets, with discussions including money transfers and identified jewelry. The proceedings have been adjourned until September 18th to allow for further agreements between prosecution and defense. Herbert, who has since been released from custody, participated in the proceedings via video link. He had previously admitted to importing 6.6lbs (3.6kg) of cannabis in mid-2023 and being involved in its supply. The rapper was arrested in February 2024 at his property near Lincoln while broadcasting on Instagram Live. It was also noted that Herbert had reportedly earned over £3 million from his music career prior to these events.
