Also locked up this week was a rapist who tried to get his victim to drop her allegations against him
An ‘evil’ couple who found their friend dead and dragged her body ‘face down through the mud’ before dumping her by a primary school are amongst those who have been jailed in Greater Manchester this week.
Lee Standen, 42, was convicted of being involved in the supply of cocaine across Wigan during 2020. Prosecutors alleged that he had an Encrochat device, and used the handle ‘AleZebra’ as part of the conspiracy. Eight men, namely Dean Smallwood, Jamie Kenny, Leon Kenny, Nathan Cooke, Sam Causer, Nathan Hart, Ian Ormshaw and Daryl Golding, have already admitted their involvement. The prosecutor said that whilst others have admitted they were involved, it showed it was proof the conspiracy existed.
Standen, of Liverpool Road, Hindley, was jailed for 19 years. A Proceeds of Crime Act hearing was set for March 28 next year when prosecutors will aim to claw back his ill-gotten gains. As she tried to leave, Mr Howarth attempted to stop her, resulting in her stabbing him in the chest, puncturing his lung. Yeomans then called her sister saying: “I think I’ve killed him.”
One young woman was assaulted after she got off the tram to meet her mum. Minutes later he grabbed another woman intimately as she pushed a shopping trolley outside a supermarket in Hollinwood.Mwangi was arrested days later and interviewed by the police, during which he was asked if he committed the offences. “I don’t have a clue, I have been drinking all week,” he replied.
Following a post mortem, 40-year-old Kerry Newman's cause of death was said to be aspiration pneumonia due to drug toxicity. Police are no longer treating her death as suspicious. In a made-up message to the mother, Robinson blustered: "Babe. You need to ring the police and report your car as stolen. Say you just got home from your mum's house and found it gone.
Encrochat drug dealers 'FlyingHorse' and 'Dave' sent down Two men who sold kilos of cocaine at a ‘wholesale’ level have been locked up. Atiq Arif, 49, and Mohammed Sharif, 43, both used the Encrochat handle ‘FlyingHorse’ to flog cocaine, amphetamine, ketamine and cannabis at ‘wholesale’ levels.
