Football scout jailed after £450k cocaine smuggling operation bust
Jordan McKinlay, 30, was handed a three-year jail sentence at the High Court in Glasgow by Lord Scott on Wednesday after earlier admitting supplying drugs. He worked with Gary O’Connell, 23, to ferry the drugs from different locations in England, including Blackburn.
McKinlay took delivery of the van after it had been driven to Blackburn and back in April 2020 by O’Connell, of Castlemilk, Glasgow. O’Connell then parked the vehicle outside McKinlay’s home in Gartcosh, North Lanarkshire, and handed over the keys.
