DARK SECRETS: Drug courier s five word confession after being caught in a taxi | Rare Historical Photos

A Liverpool drug courier confessed "there's stuff in the bag" after being stopped travelling in a taxi.

John Brennan was in a taxi driving towards Aberdeen when police stopped the car and said they were going to carry out a search. Brannan, of Hahnemann Road, Walton, then sighed, kicked a bag at his feet and said: "There's stuff in the bag."

Later during police interview, detectives asked the 41-year-old if he was involved in supplying drugs and he replied: "Obviously." Brennan was carrying more than £130,000 worth of cocaine and heroin at the time he was caught.
