Friends of Ours: Gay Gangster Gets Life In Murder-For-Hire Case: "Yorkshire, England a manufacturer and trafficker of the club drug ecstasy has been sentenced to life in prison in the murder-for-hire of his boyfriend and fellow druggie whom he wanted to ditch after fifteen years in order to be free to take up with a woman as reported by the Yorkshire Post:
The victim, Leeds car dealer and drug supplier Christopher Hartley, was found with gunshot wounds to the head and chest on a quiet country road last September after David Large, 36, recruited his friend Simon Mullen, 39, to carry out the execution. Yesterday the pair, who will both serve a minimum of 30 years, showed no emotion as a jury found them both guilty of murdering Mr Hartley. * * * When police searched Mr Hartley's five-bedroom detached home at Haigh Wood Lodge, Batley Road, Tingley, near Leeds, they discovered a drugs factory and almost 20,000 Ecstasy tablets. The prosecution said Large wanted Mr Hartley dead so that he could continue his relationship with a woman. * * * Det Supt Chris Thompson, who led the case, said: 'David Large was a man steeped in crime who lived an opulent lifestyle, owning fast cars and large houses both at home and abroad, all of which were funded through fraud and drugs."
