The Detectives - BBC 2 now

Anyone watching? Not the underrated 90's comedy with Jasper Carrott and Robert Powell but the documentary. Looking at a murder by an Organised Crime Group which was basically a daylight gangland execution (actually shown in the programme). Quite scary to think this is happening in not just Manchester but most of our big cities.

Only noticed it tonight, but its riveting

Bit like Line of Duty this like
I was expecting that the 8 of them would get convicted and the total sentences would be something like 200 years. Not 51 years! and 36 of them were for Wade Cox alone!

Was a good watch that.

Cox and the gang looked like scumbags from the outset.

 

[Dan The Man]

Got that on iPlayer to watch

Not as smart as they thought they were. Undone as most are by underestimating the power of mobile data.

 

[Sack Fatto]

Absolute Scum of the Earth...Police did a cracking job.

 

[Sinbad Skullhead]

Them sentences were all over the shop. Conspiracy to a murder and placed at the scene couple of years.

Did they just forget about CCTV everywhere? They got charged with being part of an Organised Crime Gang but dont think they actually got done for that. They were all lucky apart from Wade Cox 36 years I wonder if everyday he thinks it was worth it

Yeh I agree, don't think they even got done for conspiracy to murder just helping an offender. Five jailed for the murder of dad of two gunned down on Ashton under Lyne Street - About Manchester

 

[Strawbs were class]

Thing that got me, given it was a coordinated arrest, was why 2 tried to flee the country, tip off that the dawn raid was happening?

H ? maybe the OCG had a bent copper on the payroll. Good plot for next Line of Duty

 

[ravydavygravy]

Going round calling you a ginger ****.

 

[Sinbad Skullhead]

I tell you what that anton fella was a lucky bugger if he had stayed in the van as they expected from the text and not went to the door to drop off the drugs hed be dead. That wade cox walked straight past him and then only clicked on when he started running.

Cornforth brothers obviously learned their lessons well - Conor for doing his miniscule sentence for assisting an offender, and Jay for beating all charges. Completely rehabilitated!

The CCTV footage of a brawl outside a karaoke bar which landed four men in jail

The appalling footage shows 'promising boxer' Jay Cornforth using a knife, and his brother Conor Cornforth landing punches outside Charlie's Bar

Think the 'Boss Green' sporty arm of the label made a once smart brand completely chavtastic. Its dreadful gear now, all massive logos and worn by 'on road' dickheads.

They'll be snides.

Did you notice the amount of times the criminals were walking around the police station without cuffs on ? not surprising that copper was able to be shot a few months back
