    brett boxed and was on tv = nice guy

    "Griffiths and Flournoy arrived unannounced at the home of his(haigh's) partner Laura’s parents, hours after she had given birth to their second child, a daughter, because he turned his phone off while they were in the labour ward."

    Doesn't tell you what they threatened to do his unborn child or threatened to do to his newborn child afterwards does it?

    When the story of the deaths first came out, I amongst many others expressed sadness on the deaths.

    But now we know the truth, he was hardly a struggling boxer making ends meet by dealing drugs. He was the one forcing others.

    From the sounds of it this guy chose to kill them instead of them doing something to him and his family. Amazing what people will do when squeezed.

    Despite what they were... RIP

    If all the accusations of the defendants were true, how come the judge gave them 35 years?

    Something isn't right.

    Cos shooting somebody and then burying the bodies is a pretty wicked thing to do. Especially with the level of gun crime about, he was made an example of.

    There's nothing the judge/Jury heard that isn't said in the press reports.

    also hinted that it was multiple counts, so i think it was also a accumulation of small things heaped on him. associating with gangsters is not illegal. but how did you get to owe £20,000 while admitting your a drug mule.
