Gangster accused of murdering Scots mum may have 'travelled to Northern Ireland'

A gangster accused of murdering a missing Scots mum may be hiding out across the Irish Sea after escaping from jail.

Dean Woods failed to return to the Derbyshire jail where he is serving a 12-year sentence over an £8million cocaine ring. In 2015, the 40-year-old was charged with “conspiracy to murder” Lisa Brown, of Dumbarton, after she disappeared in Spain.

But the case was put on hold due to a lack of evidence. Officers in England have now told the Record they believe the hood, who worked as a luxury yacht dealer, may have fled across the Irish Sea.
