Haulage Company Boss traffics Heroin, slapped on wrist.
Pictured above, Victor Ree's Davies, haulage boss on Knowsley Industrial estate who used his company to traffic drugs and launder money.
Davies was netted in a Customs undercover investigation and caught red handed in possession of drugs valued at 1 million.
The Lottery of Sentences for Drug Dealing
It seems that there is a great deal of inconsistency with the sentencing of those who deal on a big scale.
A quick search of the local media's news archives will reveal some street dealers selling £10 deals
getting bigger sentences than the likes of Davies and other major distributors and importers.For instance, a man caught selling heroin and cocaine to undercover Police Officers,was given
a four and a half year sentence! The amount of heroin and cocaine involved was less than £300's worth.
It seems strange that dealers caught red handed with a Million Pounds worth of heroin and cocaine can get less than the quarter of the sentence of a street dealer.
The law is definitely an ass. Customs done there job here, but i daresay they aren't exactly overjoyed. Davies will be out in a few months, unlike the person who's story is outlined below.
The End result of the Heroin and Cocaine Dealers Trade.
The following piece was published in the Liverpool Echo and details the death of an heroin addict. We hope the lowlife
who sell heroin in particular are sentenced by the parents of the victims of addiction and premature death.
DEATH OF AN ADDICT
Mother watched as addict son died
Jul 17 2002 Daily Post
A CORONER heard how a mother watched her son die after he used her mobile phone to order some of the drugs that killed him.
Unemployed Andrew Mc-Hale, 28, was poisoned by a cocktail of morphine, methadone and cocaine, an inquest in Liverpool heard.
Andrew's mother, Estelle Newman, recalled how she went to his home in Freehold Street, Fairfield, on April 16 after receiving a call from her daughter, Melanie.
In a statement, Mrs Newman said: "He opened the door and I could tell he looked ill as he was holding his stomach, walking slowly, bent over, with one leg of his nylon track-suit rolled up.
"He asked to use my mobile phone and, talking into the phone, said 'It's me. Can you get round here quickly?'
Mrs Newman, of Atheldene Road, Walton, told the hearing that a drug dealer arrived and handed over some heroin.
When questioned by Liverpool Coroner Andre Rebello, Mrs Newman admitted she knew he intended to inject the drug.
She said she intended to take him to hospital, but added: "It would have been difficult to get him from the flat to the hospital while he was ill with withdrawal symptoms."
A few minutes later she found Andrew lying on the floor. An ambulance was called but he was dead on arrival at Royal Liverpool University Hospital.
Mr Rebello said that shortly before his death Andrew received hospital treatment for deep vein thrombosis associated with intravenous drug abuse. His mother picked him up from hospital on April 6 without realising he had discharged himself.
Mrs Newman said she was aware her son had used drugs since 1996 and described him as a "changed person" who was "in and out of hospital."
Mr Rebello said: "Whether Andrew's death would have occurred without the injection, we don't know.
"Andrew died from dependence on, and abuse of drugs. Drugs are illegal because they destroy not just lives but families."
HEROIN IS THE OPIUM OF THE PEOPLE
There are those who believe that the drugs trade is left to flourish as it is a means of social control.
Where religion was once said to be the opium of the people, today's generation of addicts have heroin as a religion.
Those really behind the trade on a mass scale are governments and military institutions.
Kirkby will have a few major distributors, the market here even for local heroin distribution is very rewarding and elsewhere there is an article which deals with
drug related issues in Kirkby. We have seen a lot of deaths here related to drugs, heroin is a useful tool to destroy working class communities, it is no co-incidence that the
communities which once were radical are now barely able to muster any opposition to the most outrageous of anti working class political policies. Maybe thats why the One year sentence was handed down so as to not put off any respectable
business people from carrying on a useful trade in supplying Working class Communities with this Poison.
