Picture of drug dealer Leon Atkinson sinks him

He was described as a regional cocaine supplier. He foolishly trusted Encrochat completely.

A photo of drug dealer Leon Atkinson posing in the sunshine proved to be key evidence in helping cops put him away. It was sent to a man named Jason Cox and discovered after cops cracked the encrypted Encrochat network. Atkinson messaged the Cox clan to negotiate buying from them half of £1m worth of cocaine they had stolen from an infamous Liverpool crime mob. A brutal burglary at a Liverpool gang's stash house returned 30kg of cocaine. Atherton was sentenced to 15 years in prison for conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

Atkinson was a target for Manchester cops and a close friend of cop killer Dale Cregan, who is serving life for four murders, including the killings of two police. The 43-year-old was tried alongside Cregan in 2013 accused of killing Mark Short. He dodged conviction. See ----->UK cop killer Dale Cregan

Estonian hitman Imre Arakas - I am not a criminal

Estonian hitman Imre Arakas gave evidence via video link from prison to a murder trial in Lithuanian last year. He is charged with killing a drug dealer. The 63 year old is serving a 6.5 year sentence over a plot to murder James ‘Mago’ Gately, part of the Kinahan-Hutch feud.

British Virgin Islands premier busted for cocaine in US sting - update III

Legislators voted to remove disgraced premier Andrew Fahie and install his former deputy, Natalio Wheatley. This came as Fahie was granted $500k bail in Miami, a decision that was immediately appealed. Andrew Fahie had demanded his immediate release from US custody, claiming he is immune from prosecution on drug trafficking charges because he is an elected, constitutional head of government.

Andrew Fahie, the premier of the British Virgin Islands, was busted in a sting in Miami on charges of conspiring to import cocaine and money laundering.

Britain is poised to impose a form of direct rule over the British Virgin Islands after the territory’s premier was arrested. Hours before his court appearance in Miami, a commission of inquiry – launched in 2021 – reported on widespread abuses, including millions disappearing. The commission recommended that the territory have its constitution suspended, its elected government dissolved and be ruled from London.

“Oh, no no no, not my first rodeo at all, NOT, MY FIRST RODEO, AT ALL,” Fahie can be heard laughing in a recording.

ex-B.C. lawyer Fred Sharp charged by SEC, FBI - $52.9m

Five years after he was exposed as a major Canadian player in the "Panama Papers" offshore finance scandal, Fred Sharp is now facing prosecution in the US. He had his assets frozen by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and has an arrest warrant outstanding. The offshore shell facilitator was handed a US$52.9m judgment for fraud.

He stepped down as the chairman, but not before the "Sharp Group" booked $16.6m in ill gained profits ... including $2.6m to Dhillon. Dhillon concealed ownership of Arch Therapeutics and OncoSec Medical Inc. Both were microcap biotechnology companies he chaired between March 2011 and April 2020.
