June 12, 2025 Criminal Record 12/06/2025: Former police chief’s knife crime solution | How crime groups operate drugs market
Norman Silverster is joined by Graeme Pearson, former Director General of the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency, on this week’s Criminal Record podcast to continue our examination of the long running Lyons and Daniel gangland feud which saw two Lyons family members Ross Monaghan and Eddie Lyons jnr shot dead last month in a bar owned by Monaghan in Spain.

Closer to home police have been investigating a series of targeted fire bombing and other attacks against Daniel family members and associates since March in both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

We will also take a look at plans by First Minister John Swinney for an anti youth violence summit to tackle the problem of knife crime among the young.

Graeme Pearson is the former Director General of the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency formed in 2001 to target organised crime in Scotland.
Mr Pearson led the organisation between 2004 and 2007 where a number of major criminals were brought to justice including the notorious Jamie "Iceman" Stevenson.

After a distinguished police career Mr Pearson became a Labour MSP and served as the party's justice spokesperson and is now an Honorary Professor at Glasgow University.

Molly Finlay is joined by Daily Record crime writer Norman Silvester on this week’s Criminal Record podcast as the foot soldiers of gangster Ross McGill have firebombed a Range Rover and a transit van outside homes belonging to associates of Mark Richardson in Edinburgh.Police Scotland insist that the double shooting of Ross Monaghan and Eddie Lyons junior is not linked to recent gang violence in Scotland. As Spanish locals react to the murders, there are calls for foreign criminals to be deported - as the local mayor says they simply don’t have the resources to keep a lid on the trouble.
First Minister John Swinney has vowed to crack down on youth violence, calling for a summit in light of the knife crime related deaths of Scottish teenagers Amen Teklay and Kayden Moy.
