The Tobin brothers, Alan and John, were the ones running the show, supplying drugs to gangs all over the UK. They were living the high life, but everything came crashing down when the police intercepted a van loaded with their stash. Losing that much product? Yeah, that’s a big deal in their world.
Things got really messy after that. John, feeling the heat from his debts, ended up getting shot. It turns out he was under pressure to pay back “The Banker,” who was apparently a key player in the drug trade. The brothers even tried to plot some violent revenge against their enemies, but it just spiraled out of control.
They had this whole operation going, using fancy cars with hidden compartments to move their drugs around. But once the police got a hold of their EncroChat messages, it was game over. They were in deep with some of the toughest gangsters in the north west, and it didn’t end well for them.
In the end, both brothers got hefty prison sentences for their roles in the drug trade and the violence that followed. It’s a classic case of crime not paying off, and now they’re facing the consequences of their actions. What a wild ride, huh?
