Detective Chief Inspector Gets £10,000 Bribe And Five Years In Prison
QUOTE
A former star of TV's Gladiators and a senior policeman have been found guilty of corruption and perverting the course of justice. Mike Ahearne, 'Warrior' in the ITV show, and Merseyside detective Elmore Davies - both from Oxton, Wirral - were convicted after a 24-day trial at Nottingham Crown Court. Along with a third man, Tony Bray, 50, of Moreton, Wirral, they were found guilty of plotting to scupper the prosecution of Philip Glennon Junior, who was later convicted of firearms offences..............

Davies, a policeman for 34 years, accepted a £10,000 bribe to try to sabotage the Glennon prosecution.
UNQUOTE
Davies was an experienced liar, a hardened liar, an experienced perjurer. He also knew how to get away with it. But he got sloppy or someone babbled. The judge was fairly honest - ten years would have been better.

 

Corrupt policeman caught on camera - saved
Davies again.

 

Curtis Warren
Seriously big time crook - got information from Davies
QUOTE
In the late 1980s, he came to a working agreement with Middlesbrough trafficker Brian Charrington. In September 1991, using Charrington's personal yacht, the pair sailed to France on then-legal British visitor passports. They then travelled to Venezuela on British 10-year passports, and arranged a deal with the Cali cartel to smuggle cocaine in steel boxes, concealed in lead ingots.^[1]

On arrival in the UK, HM Customs and Excise cut open one ingot, but found nothing. Having let the shipment pass, they were later informed by Dutch police that the drugs were held in the steel boxes; by which time Charrington, Warren and the shipment were untraceable. However, a second shipment of 907 kilograms (2,000 lb) using the same method was already on its way from South America.^[1]

When the shipment landed in the UK in early 1992, Charrington, Warren and twenty-six others were placed under arrest, in a prosecution brought by HM Customs and Excise. However, in preliminary court procedures, it was revealed by police that Charrington was a police informant for the North-East Regional Crime Squad. HM Customs officials went forward with their prosecution, despite protests from his police "handlers" Harry Knaggs and Ian Weedon. In Newcastle Crown Court, it was alleged that Warren was so well informed, that he knew the length of the largest drill bit owned by HM Customs, and therefore the size/depth of the required ingots.^[8] Eventually, through Tory MP Tim Devlin, a meeting was arranged in which Customs was ordered to drop charges against Charrington on 28 January 1993. The case was dropped, with all accused including Warren acquitted of all charges.^[1]

It is alleged that on release, Warren purposefully walked past the HM Customs agents, saying: "I'm off to spend my £87 million from the first shipment and you can't touch me."^[1] Several months later, Knaggs was spotted by HM Customs officials driving a £70,000 BMW, previously registered to Charrington.
UNQUOTE
Perhaps he should have gone into banking. Then he would have gotten away with it. Notice that Customs wanted to prosecute but the filth objected so they were bullied into letting him walk.

Byline: BEN ROSSINGTON

Liverpool in the 1990s was plagued by a bloody and brutal gang war. Drug dealer shot drug dealer, bullets whizzed towards bouncers stood guarding pubs and the notoriously heavy-handed police struggled to keep a lid on a bubbling pot already well past boiling point boiling point, temperature at which a substance changes its state from liquid to gas. A stricter definition of boiling point is the temperature at which the liquid and vapor (gas) phases of a substance can exist in equilibrium. .

Spring and summer 1995 saw simmering feuds, over drugs or club security, erupt into fully blown turf wars.

Suddenly the city's underworld armed itself, with the protagonists packing guns to wipe out their rivals. The police responded by saying they would "fight fire with fire" and talked of crossing thresholds and "no going back".

For Curtis Warren Curtis "Cocky" Warren (born May 31, 1963, Toxteth, Liverpool, England) was a notorious British drug dealer from Liverpool. At one point reportedly worth in excess of £125 million, Warren appeared on the Sunday Times , now in his early 30s, the bloodshed was bad for business.

Shootings were taking place in gyms, at traffic lights, on the street. No-one knew who would be next as the situation escalated.

The Columbian Cali cartel Noun 1. Cali cartel - a drug cartel that seized control of cocaine production in Colombia in 1993; adopted techniques used by terrorist organizations (small cells and sophisticated communications equipment and close ties with politicians etc.  with whom Warren dealt became just as jittery. Liverpool wasworth a fortune to them, but the market for their product was becoming ruthlessly divided as former loyaltieswere split and one-time associates turned on each other.

As the heat grew,Warren got out of the kitchen.

The move to Holland would put Warren back into the clutches of the police and customs who had been looking at his activities for the last three years, working under the codename "Operation Crayfish crayfish or crawfish, freshwater crustacean smaller than but structurally very similar to its marine relative the lobster, and found in ponds and streams in most parts of the world except Africa. Crayfish grow some 3 to 4 in. (7.6–10. ".

Soon after his acquittal in Newcastle in 1993, the authorities realised Warren was still up to his old tricks and set out to snare snare (snar) a wire loop for removing polyps and tumors by encircling them at the base and closing the loop.

The chase would lead to him being named as Europe's most wanted Most Wanted may refer to:

 man when Interpol gave him the tag "Target One".

Warren continued to pull the strings on Merseyside fromhis Dutch farmhouse, named "Bakara", and soon his guard began to drop.

Unbeknown to him the Dutch police were listening in on his conversations with a wire tap, although with little success as they struggled to cut through his Liverpool accent, the backslang he used and the codewords he slipped in when talking people and business.

The phone-taps had revealed how Warren''s Dutch base became a nerve centre for importing drugs into Britain from all over the world.

He bought his cocaine from Colombia, heroin from Turkey and cannabis fromSpain.Warren and his associates would even be heard complaining to each other that they had lost millions of pounds if there was a big seizure as part of Crayfish.

But he had bigger worries - there were only five more months of freedom for him.

In October 1996 the authorities on Merseyside and in Holland made their move.

Countless homes and several warehouses were raided.

Warren was woken when armed police crashed through his door, throwing flash grenades to disorientate disorientate or disorient

In that one co-ordinated raid 400kgs of cocaine, 60kilos of heroin, 1,500kilos of cannabis, 50kilos of ecstasy, 900 CS gas canisters, a number of hand grenades and several firearms were seized along with a stack of false passports.

The cocaine, found in Rotterdam on the Columbia, a ship from Venezuela,may have been only a first or second instalment. It was 98% pure. And the entire haul was worth well over pounds 100m.

It was hidden, as per Warren's previous, in lead ingots. This time though, Customs had the kit to find the drugs and had been waiting for it.

They drilled through the top of the three-feet squares until the drill bit pierced the steel boxes hidden inside the lead.

Warren was tried in 1997 amid a massive security operation at The Hague.

There, the full facts of the operation to catch him were laid bare.

He was convicted of running one of Europe's biggest drugs rackets rackets

The authorities, however, put his estimated fortune at much more. They tried to track his cash and put his illicit earnings at closer to the pounds 180m mark.

But his influence was far more than untold wealth.

During the phone-tapping, officers suddenly began to hear references by Warren and his associates to an "Elly".

Warren was heard talking to close friend Tony Bray about an attempted shooting outside the infamousVenue nightclub, in Green Lane, Tuebrook, in July 1996. Warren's good friend, Philip Glennon Jnr, had tried to shoot two bouncers who had slung him out after a kick-off inside.

But the gun jammed and Glennon was arrested by a passing police patrol.

Soon, the wire-taps picked up Warren telling Bray to offer Elly pounds 20,000 to make the gun disappear from its current site within a police evidence room.

By that point, those listening in knew Elly was in fact DCI (Display Control Interface) An Intel/Microsoft programming interface for full-motion video and games in Windows.

But the weapon had already been sent off for testing. Instead, Davies offered Warren the witness statements from the case and he would push for it to be dropped.

Using TV Gladiator gladiator

(Latin; swordsman)

Professional combatant in ancient Rome who engaged in fights to the death as sport. Gladiators originally performed at Etruscan funerals, the intent being to give the dead man armed attendants in the next world.  Mike Ahearne, better known to millions of fans as Warrior from the popular Saturday night show, as a go-between, Davies passed details of the car, home and children''s nursery trips of a key police officer in the case in return for pounds 10,000 from Bray.

In 1998 Ahearne, Bray and Davies were all jailed for attempting to pervert the course of justice.

In 2001 four more years were added to Warren's tariff after a prison yard scrap saw him kill a fellow inmate.

The court heard how Cocky repeatedly hit and kicked his victim, Turkish prisoner Cemal Guclu, after Guclu picked a fight and attacked first.

Guclu had a fearsome reputation for violence within the Dutch penal system leading him to be placed in isolation several times. He had been serving a 20 year sentence for shooting one woman dead and trying to kill another as they sat eating in a Rotterdam restaurant in 1994.

But when he and Warren went toe-to-toe, there was only one winner.

The Dutch then went after Warren's cash, freezing what few assets they could find - a handful of Merseyside homes and bank accounts - before ordering him to hand over 63 million guilders from his ill-gotten gains, a figure later reduced to 26m guilders, or face extra time in prison. His legal team told the authorities he had no choice but to serve the extra six years in custody because he was penniless and could not pay back the money.

But he never did serve the extra time, nor cough up the cash.

Instead, after 10 years being switched around various hell-hole prisons - almost six of those spent in solitary - Curtis Warren was let free.
