Now it's time for | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Five robbers are beginning sentences totalling 82 years tonight | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
for their part in a crime unseen before in the UK. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Four of them were from Mersdyside and convicted of conspiracy to cause | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
explosions after dozens of `ttacks on cash machines last year. | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
The judge described them as having posed | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
The gang attacking a bank cash machine, one of 31 | :00:30. | :00:37. | |
After prizing the ATM free, explosive gas is pumped | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
into the bank and ignited with a simple m`tch | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
As far as I'm aware, this is the first prosecution for this type | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
There have been similar att`cks on the continent but never | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
The effects are devastating and lucrative. | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
The spree started in late winter last year. | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
First it was banks in the Mhdlands, then some closer to Merseyshde, | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
including branches of Barcl`ys, NatWest and Santander. | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
On one evening in September, the gang carried out two rahds | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
simultaneously, netting a total of ?250,000. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Judge Mark Brown told the ddfendants that it was fortunate that no one | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
He said the explosions had occurred in | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
an uncontrolled way and that public safety must have been put at risk. | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
He also said that the defendants must have known | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
about the risks that they wdre taking and posing to the public | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
During one raid in Leicestershire, nearby families were woken | :01:38. | :01:38. | |
I heard the loudest bang, like a bomb going off. | :01:39. | :01:46. | |
It woke me up and I thought, what on earth was that? | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
Of course, the next morning, the bank was taped off, | :01:50. | :01:50. | |
Today, the ringleaders, Craig Cartwright from Coventry, | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
and Kurt Beddoes of Huyton, got 17 years after pleading guilty to | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
Ian Ellis from Rainhill was given 13 xears. | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
Thomas Whittingham from West Derby and Anthony Bushell | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
of no fixed abode got 18 and 17 years respectively | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
All five got eight years for conspiracy to burgle. | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
Evidence found on the defendants' phones and at the premises they | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
They were caught after being tracked with a stolen cash box. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
Summing up, Judge Mark Brown said that these | :02:26. | :02:27. | |
offences had been committed by an organised crime group | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
He also said that their financial rewards had been | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
considerable but he said th`t the losses to the banks had been too. | :02:38. | :02:42. | |

New video has emerged showing a former rugby player from Wigan | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
struggling with police officers shortly before his death in Spain. | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
Some who claim to have seen what happened say Luke | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
Luke was on a stag do in Ibhza weeks before his best friend's wedding. | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
Through the noise and the anxious voices, a m`n can be | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
This mobile phone video is said to show police officers restrahning | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
Luke Rhoden minutes before his death. | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
Luke was in Ibiza for a stag do weeks | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
He is the best person you could ever meet, obviously. | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
Luke was staying at this hotel, known for live music | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
He appears to have leapt from a balcony before | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
But while they were still in Ibiza, his friends became suspiciots about | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
A lot of them were really different stories. | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
What were they saying, what kind of things? | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
Just things like everyone else has heard, the police beat him tp, | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
The hotel where Luke was st`ying describes his death as deeply sad | :03:55. | :04:03. | |
news and they say they're hdlping the police with their investigation. | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
But when we spoke to the police in Spain yesterday they told us | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
So how much confidence can Luke s family here in Wigan have | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
At the moment it's not been great, because it feels like, with Luke's | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
friends that were out there, they were asking for evidence of what had | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
gone on, CCTV, and apparently they were very unhelpful. | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
But since MPs have got involved and various media bodies, lhke | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
yourself, I think they have realised it is snowballing a bit now, | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
