EncroChat drug trafficker branded sentence a 'joke' after plotting with cousin to trade heroin and cocaine
An EncroChat drug trafficker known as "Piggy Wilson" kept tens of thousands pounds stashed inside a Valentino box.
Matthew Conway, prosecuting, referenced a sample of his communications - including those exchanged with his cousin Daniel Shepherd, who went by the username "Vain Crane". The 32-year-old, from Kirkdale, was locked up for 11-and-a-half years last month. An encrypted Google phone with a Russian SIM card was also recovered from the same room. Wilson answered no comment to detectives after being transported into custody at Copy Lane Police Station.
"He is not an importer or a street dealer, he is a middle man. It is sadly becoming common that people are throwing away many years of their lives for getting involved, or in this case getting involved again.Mr Barraclough also cited a recent incident behind bars, during which Wilson stopped a fellow inmate who was "high on spice" from attacking a guard. He said: "He is a model prisoner.
Wilson admitted conspiracy to supply heroin and cocaine. Appearing via video link to HMP Liverpool wearing a grey Under Armour zip-up top, he shook his head and said "joke that you know" after being jailed for 14-and-a-half years. "The community bears the impact of this trade and society ultimately picks up the human cost in terms of health, crime and ultimately the imprisonment of those convicted and sentenced. Your offences are made more serious by your previous offences.
