Lancashire Police poke fun at arrogant criminal with photo of him holding cash

that included drug importation and vehicle thefts. After his jailing, Lancashire Police compared a picture of him holding up the cash with his mughshot, saying: "How it started… How it’s going”.

The footage implicated him in the supply of cocaine and cannabis. It also showed him carelessly filming his co-defendant in a stolen van which also showed items taken during burglaries and describing it as a 'good night's work'. Walmsley was later handed two years and four months in prison for conspiracy to commit burglary and conspiracy to steal a motor vehicle at Preston Crown Court. Speaking following the sentencing of the 14 men, DS Stu Peall, of the force’s East Exploitation Team, said they had “mocked” hard-working residents with their videos.

“This significant policing operation has led to separate OCGs operating in the same town being dismantled and its members put before the courts. I hope the outcome of this case sends a strong message that Lancashire Police will not tolerate criminal activity of any kind and put those who wish to engage in it before the courts.”
