Brandon Hale was shot in the head in what was thought to be a gangland execution and then dumped in Queens Wood, Highgate.
It was said that he had been a prolific and compulsive gambler and money launderer and had lost £100,000 belonging to professional criminals which he had gambled away. Investigations revealed that Brandon Hale had received a six figure sum of money three days before his murder but had confessed to his wife that he had lost £90,000 of it soon after in casinos.
