Colin Gunn, one of Britain’s most dangerous gangsters has been using Facebook to threaten and intimidate his enemies from a maximum security prison. Gunn, an underworld godfather who ordered the execution of two grandparents, has been able to correspond freely with up to 565 “friends” on the social networking site for the past two months.
Gunn, currently serving a 35-year term for conspiracy to commit murder, allegedly "has been using Facebook to threaten and intimidate his enemies from a maximum security prison" and "is said to be still running his drugs and organized crime cartel from jail."
He claims he was allowed to set up a Facebook account by prison governors, suggesting it was his legal right. Critics believe the authorities may have turned a blind eye out of fear of receiving a legal challenge on human rights grounds. His site, which he appears to have been able to update on a daily basis, was shut down on Friday after The Sunday Times raised the alarm.
