In a major victory for law enforcement, Craig McKenzie, a notorious drug boss, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison following an extensive investigation by the National Crime Agency (NCA). McKenzie, 41, was found guilty of conspiring to supply heroin, cocaine, and cannabis from various locations including the Netherlands, Spain, and North America. He was a well-known figure in the criminal underworld of the North West of England.
Operating from his base in Hatchmere Close, Cheadle Hulme, Greater Manchester, McKenzie employed runners to distribute drugs to his customers. While most of his clientele resided in Liverpool and Manchester, he also extended his illicit enterprise to Wales and London. Additionally, evidence revealed his involvement in money laundering activities, where he sent proceeds from drug sales to notorious offenders in Spain and the United Arab Emirates through illicit channels.
