Angela Collingbourne was 'second-in command' of the crime syndicate which was caught flooding the streets with around 42kg of class-A drugs in Newport, south Wales. Sixteen gang members distributed the drug for the family-run gang which operated out of a garage called NP19 Tyres. Video showed thousands of pounds passing through the garage but only a handful of cars were being repaired. The gang used a mobile phone called 'the Jez line' to contact customers with 4,000 different numbers using the line over two years. Collingbourne had been responsible for managing the gang's funds and facilitating and maintaining control of the the mobile telephone trading line. The grandmother denied being 'a trusted lieutenant' of the organised crime group but was convicted by a jury. Sixteen gang members distributed the drug for the family-run gang which operated out of the NP19 Tyres garage (pictured) Jerome Nunes, 28, and Blaine Nunes, 26, were also jailed for 12 and 14 years respectively Collingbourne's sons Jerome Nunes, 28, and Blaine Nunes, 26, were also jailed, for 12 and 14 years respectively. Judge Daniel Williams said: 'Each of you played a role trading in a vile drug. 'One of the most depressing features is that Jerome Nines was able to direct the operation from his prison cell using hidden mobile phones.' Collingbourne, from Newport, and the eight gang members are to be sentenced at a later date after being found guilty of conspiracy to supply a Class A drug.
