Drug Ring Pays Back Tiny Fraction | Nottingham News

A Nottingham drug ring that made over £645,000 is now being ordered to repay just £7,000—less than 1% of their haul. Six members, including a woman who earned £108,000, are each forced to return tiny fractions: one dollar, twenty-five dollars, or selling a car for $200. The operation, run even from inside prison via smuggled phones, collapsed after a drone carrying drugs crashed outside a jail. While the court tries to recover stolen money through the Proceeds of Crime Act, the paltry returns highlight how much of the cash vanished—or was spent. Crime may not pay in the long run, but the system’s recovery efforts are painfully small. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
