EncroChat dealer 'MossyJade' trafficked hundreds of thousands of pounds of cocaine and cannabis
A dad's collection of Rolexes and designer clothing was seized from him after his true identity was revealed.
Matthew Conway, prosecuting, said he had "clearly had an extensive criminal network", with 45 handles being stored in his own contact list. He had been in touch with 16 of these users over a three-month period, including speaking about the arrival of a consignment of cannabis with "EarthAle" on March 31 2020.
A tick list was also found in the notes section of Duncan's Encro phone, detailing sales in the tens of thousands of pounds. Overall, his messages revealed discussions to supply 25kg of cocaine and 88kg of cannabis "on a commercial scale", having "held substantial influence on others in the chain" and boasted a "thriving wide network of associates".
This concerned an incident in March last year, when he was seen riding his bike along Scotland Road before being followed onto Boundary Street by PCs. The defendant threw away snap bags of cannabis before he was arrested and in possession of a small quantity of cash, with larger amounts of drugs and money being discovered when his house was searched.
"What we can see is somebody who is trusted to do something for somebody else on their behalf. Mr Duncan is the father to a young child and one of the principle carers for his very unwell mother." "You were sufficiently well connected and trusted to arrange the storage of a huge quantity of cocaine, which would have had a very substantial value of something like £100,000 pounds or more in terms of wholesale value. Mr Cook tells me on your behalf that you are someone who has family responsibilities
