Addison faces one year, while Latham and Tait each get three years and nine months. They all pleaded guilty in April. The operation, part of the broader European Operation Venetic, dismantled a network led by ringleader Conor McGregor, who got six years after being extradited from Morocco. McGregor orchestrated shipments of cannabis, cocaine, and diamorphine across Scotland between 2019 and 2022. Another key player, Gavin Bowie, received four years and three months for his involvement in Moray and surrounding areas. Police Scotland says this is just the beginning of their global effort to shut down drug networks and keep communities safe. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
