Man convicted for part in drug dealer murder

A FIFTH man charged with murdering small-time drug dealer Adam Vincent was yesterday cleared of his murder but convicted of grievous bodily harm with intent.

Matthew Frow, 32, had already been found guilty of conspiring to pervert the course of justice by disposing of Mr Vincent’s body which was dismembered into six pieces and strewn about the waterways of Lincolnshire last year.

Lee Griffiths, 43, his sons Thomas, 22, and Luke, 19, and Lee’s stepson Mark Jackson, 27, all from Grimsby, have already been convicted of murdering Mr Vincent and conspiring to pervert the course of justice by a jury at Sheffield Crown Court following a ten-week trial.
