A dad whose criminal underworld dealings were exposed when law enforcement cracked an EncroChat network said he was seduced by the prospect of "easy money". Kurt Jervis became entangled in a "large scale" cocaine operation worked as a courier for Stockport based drugs boss Aaron Wright.
Jervis, who described the murky world he descended into as "proper serious and organised crime", was linked to 39 kilos of the class A drug. Wright, 37, was said to be involved with at least 60 kilos of cocaine, Manchester Evening News reports.
Wright and Jervis, 37, pleaded guilty to conspiring to supply a class A drug and conspiring to conceal criminal property. An encrypted phone system previously thought to be impenetrable was accessed by law enforcement which revealed everything the pair had been up to.
