Barry Harvey, Thomas Guthrie and Darren Owen were found guilty after a mammoth 12-week trial at the High Court in Glasgow. Former Partick Thistle youth player Harvey was called a 'cold blooded killer' by prosecutors.

Barry Harvey, Thomas Guthrie and Darren Owen were found guilty after a mammoth 12-week trial at the High Court in Glasgow. Former footballer-turned-assassin Harvey was convicted of gunning down gym boss Gary More, 32, on the doorstep of his home in Airdrie, Lanarkshire on September 6 2018.

Owen was further convicted of being part of the vets shooting of Bennett. It is believed that the gang are linked to notorious brothers Barry and James Gillespie whose crime network once spanned the globe. Owen was also told by the judge to expect life behind bars. The High Court in Glasgow heard that Mr More owed a drug debt of £100,000.

Harvey blasted Mr More nine times to his head and body before he ran back inside the vehicle and fled the scene. The Skoda was found burnt out later that night. Miss Glancy added: "There was funding of Turkey teeth acquired by Harvey. The Crown say this is additional expenditure which arises from the payment for the murder of Mr More which took place a few weeks before."

He had a cut from his ear to the corner of his mouth and another to the right temple which needed 10 stitches. Another reconnaissance mission of the area took place in the lead-up to the attempted murder. Phone numbers relating to Harvey and Owen hit cell sites which were in key areas including the vets.

Miss Glancy said: "He was sitting waiting for something or someone. What takes place is a pre-planned attempt at an execution. The Crown have established beyond reasonable doubt that this was committed by Guthrie, Harvey and Owen acting together - each had a role to play.
