They're really, you know, street captains.
But again, the Criminal Assets Bureau have this policy now of targeting the clothes, the jewellery, all of the stuff that I suppose becomes, is so important to these guys.
And, you know...
there's a phenomenal list of stuff there that's taken in this case.
Because I know that because I do know...
A family member, let's say, bought a pair of fake Balenciaga and they still cost 200 quid, the fake ones.
Yeah, so you see these guys like Gagan and White, the family are, I suppose, an international crime gang.
But they still have this really strong base in West Dublin and they're also, you can see in some of the seizures, many of them which we can't get into because there's cases before the courts how they've basically had agents in every corner of the country.
But West Dublin is still their base.
And they have these, I suppose in mafia terms, these are the captains, people like Gagan and Brad White, who are probably not getting involved in the international aspect of the business.
But they're certainly controlling, you know, controlling that side of the business.
Yeah, very violent crime and I suppose given the fact he's a young man the length of sentence sort of reflects that there's a lot of violence used
Now, Charmaine and Charlene, they're named in these cab cases.
Now, they're obviously not suspected of, you know, direct involvement in any of the drug dealing business, but they're suspected of, when they're named in cab cases, it's a civil action to say that they're in possession of these assets.
And I think there was some explanation given for some of the designer gear that came from Turkey, but this obviously wasn't accepted by the court.
It was used in a few, yeah, yeah.
So Charmaine, of course, it's not her, I don't know if she was in court for those cab hearings, but she has appeared in court before for much, like a minor incident, but it was certainly some violence used to say the least.
Yeah.
I mean, I suppose you can see with the family, it does, you know, Jamie Gagan's criminal past does give an insight into how they operate.
While they have been linked to murders, they have tried to stay probably a step away from that sort of wide scale murders that were being committed by other gangs that really brought on the police attention.
