The parrot helps the British police to kiss prison prison with imitated sentences

A parrot formed to imitate drug -related sentences played an unlikely role by helping British police dismantle a network of drugs operating inside a prison, authorities revealed this week.

Lancashire Constabulary announced charges against 15 people related to the gang, which would have tampered with drugs in Blackpool, England, between February 2023 and July 2024. The group was led by Adam Garnett, 35, who was already serving a prison sentence when the operation was discovered.

The investigation started after prison officials searched the Garnett cell and found several mobile phones and Wi-Fi routers. This discovery led the police to several of its alleged associates, including Dalbir Sandhu, Shannon Hilton and Jason Gerrand. The research of their homes revealed heroin, crack, ketamine, cannabis, large sums of money and mobile phones that would have been attached to drug trade.

One of the most bizarre discoveries came from Hilton’s phone, which, according to the police, contained videos showing his parrot, named “Mango”, repeating “two for 25”, an alleged reference of the drug offer. Another clip would have shown that the bird was playing with money allegedly linked to illicit profits.

“What is the most talented thing that your animal can do? Assey? Give the paw? How about talking?” Lancashire police wrote in an article on the Department’s Facebook page.

“A parrot of a drug trafficker learned to say” two for 25 “- a sentence taken up in the context of a common language used by the gang of organized crime led by his boyfriend. Not a sentence, you want your parrot to have but the police come to strike!”

Investigators also discovered video calls between Hilton and Garnett, as well as images that seek showing cocaine packages the size of a kilogram, sometimes accompanied by music words referring to the drug.

Although they are behind bars, the authorities say that Garnett has remained at the center of the operation, directing efforts to hide evidence and maintain contact with almost all members of the criminal network.

Det. Sgt. Anthony Alves of the Lancashire Police Crime Crime Team praised the result, calling a “coordinated and complex drug operation which extended far beyond the prison walls”.

“Garnett continued to manage his business when he was incarcerated, using illegal devices to maintain control. I would like to thank my team, our partners from the Crown Prosecution Service and our team of prosecution for their dedication to translating these criminals into justice.”

He added that the mandates remain active for Chloé Stott and Ryan Black and urged the public to present information on their fate.

Authorities say that the additional evidence of suspects included videos with large amounts of money, drug -related rap words and documented drug transactions.

Garnett was sentenced to 19 years and an additional six months in prison to be purged consecutively with his existing 15 -year mandate. Hilton, 29, received 12 years while Sandhu, 41, was sentenced to 10.

The bust was part of Operation Warrior, the Lancashire police initiative to combat organized crime, drug trafficking, exploitation and violence in the region. The initiative is supported by the police and the crime commissioner Clive Grunshaw, who applauded arrests and convictions.

“This sends a clear message: we will not tolerate organized crime in our communities. I remain determined to give the police the resources they need to eliminate these gangs and protect the public.”
