A successful businesswoman who worked as an accountant for a drug gang wailed "I can't believe it" as she was jailed.
Former professional footballer Faye Dunn was ensnared at an airport after police rumbled the million pound cannabis trafficking operation. The Liverpool Echo reports that the mum became involved in the underworld when her business ventures began to falter due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Liverpool Crown Court heard on Tuesday September 6 that the 38-year-old and her dad Michael Dunn operated using EncroChat - an encrypted communications platform commonly used by criminals. But authorities gained access to the network in 2020, with Operation Venetic subsequently revealing that the daughter had been using the handle StiffNinja.
