Barry Harvey, Thomas Guthrie and Darren Owen were found guilty after a mammoth 12-week trial at the High Court in Glasgow. Harvey was paid for a hit on Gary More and splashed out on a set of 'Turkey teeth'.
Three members of a Scots supergang involved in a deadly campaign of murder and violence were jailed today for a minimum of 59 years.
Harvey was also later involved in the murder bid of drug dealer Scott Bennett, 43, who was shot outside a vets in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire on December 3 of that year. Former Partick Thistle youth player Harvey was caged in 2007 for nine years as a teenager for a savage knife attack on Thomas McCairns. The judge said: "The jury convicted you on an art and part basis in the attempted murder of Scott Bennett which was a preplanned operation.
Guthrie and Harvey went on a reconnaissance mission of the scene the night before dad Mr More was murdered. He claimed he was asked by Guthrie to follow the Skoda to a farm in Baldernock, East Dunbartonshire, where it was set of fire.Guthrie at the time of the shooting was using a phone which belonged to his dad which was later seized by police.Prosecutor Lorraine Glancy said in her closing speech: "Harvey was a cold blooded killer carrying out a job or hit for payment which went to his house and a holiday to Krakow with his girlfriend.
Mr Shields defended a Scots crime gang headed by David Sell who was caged for 16 years in 2018 for an abduction and torture of drug dealer Robert Allan."We know from CCTV the attacker was waiting for some time for Mr Shields to emerge from his office at the end of the day. Mr Shields was helped back into his office by witness and colleague John McGuire who rang 999 for help.
"The Crown have established beyond reasonable doubt that this was committed by Guthrie, Harvey and Owen acting together - each had a role to play. Mr Lyko told his cousin that he was to return to Scotland to be set up with a job in Valencia to work off the debt.
