Donna and Peter DAVIS had earlier pleaded guilty to
money laundering and sentenced to 18 months and 3 years imprisonment respectively
to run consecutively to the sentences for drugs trafficking.
Confiscation proceedings
in respect of assets held by Pattison were adjourned to a later date.
Detective Chief
Inspector Varriale who heads the Regional Task Force said “ The sentences should
send out a powerful message to those professionals who chose to assist criminals
to hide and dispose of their criminal profits. We will continue to pursue criminals
and money launderers to prosecution and seizure of their assets to demonstrate that
crime does not pay”.

He helped Thomas
McCague of Rosemount Avenue, Armagh, buy 11 properties with the proceeds of crime.
The laundered diesel and kerosene had been shipped to Britain and sold extensively,
the court was told. McCague was convicted of fuel fraud last year. At his trial
in Liverpool on Tuesday, Dougan admitted handling £66,500 in a single week in 2002.
However, he said that McCague had a profitable car wash business and he was not surprised
when large amounts of cash were brought in.

Judge Swift said upon sentencing Dougan (in July): "You were a professional
man and respected in the community. You were ideally placed to launder illicit funds.
Professional people have an obligation and must accept their responsibilities. Money
laundering is a particular matter of concern and with its links to organised crime,
must carry with it, the risk of serious consequences."

The Judge went on to warn the legal profession “to
take into account … that the [law] makes no distinction between degrees of criminal
property. An illegally obtained £10 is no less susceptible to the definition of “criminal
property” than a sum of £1million”.
The scale of the money laundering problem in the UK is enormous. In a report published in February 2002, the IMF estimated that the UK had a shadow economy of 13% of GDP. Inevitably, almost every solicitor in the country will have handled the proceeds of crime.
In its Annual Report for 2003, the National Criminal Intelligence Service noted that purchasing property in the UK was the most popular method of money laundering identified, involving roughly one in three serious and organised crime groups. “Serious and organised criminals make use of ....legal professionals to launder money, by providing expertise or lending credibility to financial targets. The service known to be in greatest demand in 2002 was conveyancing”.
“Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go …”
In July 2002 the first solicitor in the UK
was jailed for six months after he pleaded guilty to two offences of failing to report
a suspicion of money laundering.
The client had been involved in drug trafficking, but at the time when he became involved in a transaction the solicitor neither knew nor suspected that this was the case. Subsequently, the solicitor became aware of the fact that the client had been arrested for possession of a large quantity of cocaine and subsequently prosecuted for drug trafficking.
Despite accepting that the solicitor had genuinely misunderstood the scope of his legal obligation to make a suspicious activity report, the judge imposed a deterrent sentence, saying that it was necessary to send a clear message to solicitors that failing to report suspicious activity would not be tolerated. The Court of Appeal agreed.

A Kirkby Solicitor established for more than 20 years was found guilty of
"conduct unbefitting a solicitor and dishonesty" , the Solicitors' Disciplinary Tribunal
ruled.Between 1995 and 2000 he took part in 19 phoney investment schemes which netted
him untold amounts. Dooley's fee from one deal was one million dollars (£715,000).
It is also disturbing to hear that Dooley represented former Merseyside Chief constables
along with major Drug Importers like Curtis Warren jailed for his part in flooding
Merseyside with Class A drugs.

Two properties in Christchurch, Dorset were identified as being owned by the son of a suspect. One of these properties was sold and the £47,946 proceeds being held in a local solicitor's client account became the subject of a SAR Consent issue. The other property was searched and the son arrested for Money Laundering. It is estimated that there is currently in excess of £100,000 equity in the property owned by him. Evidence gathered indicated that the two properties were purchased with cash provided by his father and that mortgages were obtained by deception, which were subsequently used to obtain more loans to fund further criminal activity.

Hersi, who arrived in the UK as a Somali asylum seeker in 1985, and has served a
jail sentence for car jacking, is said to have been discovered with a £45,000 watch
after his arrest by police. Police said his network primarily operated from the Southall
area of west London, but over the course of investigations, they seized drugs and
guns in Hackney, Leicester Square, and Shepherds Bush.
Hersi has pleaded guilty to
conspiracy to possess firearms; money laundering; two counts of possession of a firearm
with intent; possession with intent to supply Class A drugs; and conspiracy to pervert
the course of justice.
He has also pleaded guilty to two counts of handling stolen
goods.
Detective Chief Inspector Peter Beyer, from the Metropolitan Police Central Task Force, said: "This investigation led to the dismantling of an established highly organised criminal network that involved serious drug trafficking and firearms offences right across London and beyond."

There have been many debates recently in both the House of
Commons and the House of Lords and also a proposed BILL aiming to give protection
to the public from dishonest and corrupt Solicitors. The Law Society was formed some
200 years ago which should have given plenty of time and opportunity to put regulations
in place to protect Solicitors’ clients.

In the UK, the ordinary men and women do not have equal access to
justice as those

do not have a written

example.
In consequence, in the UK, our court and legal services to a large
extent
are corrupt, leaving the ordinary men and women without genuine
access to justice.
Accordingly, I have setup JuryObservers to campaign for
a written constitution to
protect employment, consumer, immigration,
civil partnership, welfare, housing, human
and civil rights in the UK.

The first weapon in a dishonest lawyers arsenal against such a complaint, would be the Law Society of Scotland, the legal profession’s well known self regulator of complaints against solicitors, who act only as a control point to ensure their members are unaffected by even the largest client frauds, poorest levels of service, and in some cases, criminal charges.
The second, perhaps more sinister weapon a crooked lawyer can always seem to rely
upon, no matter how crooked they are, is, Douglas Mill, the Law Society’s very own
Chief Executive of now more than ten years.
