2 Source A - 21st Century non-fiction Living a Lie For the Best of Reasons By David Courtney Following the conviction last week of two notorious London criminals, details have emerged of the undercover police operation that led to their arrest. 5 Tom Jones (32) and Neil Parkin (29) were both sentenced to 15 years in prison for playing their violent part in a criminal gang that was operating out of a West End pub. 10 Jones, known in the gang as The Machine because of the way he approached his violent actions, was found guilty of several counts of grievous bodily harm, robbery and supplying a Class A drugs. 15 Parkin, who had only been in the gang for 16 months, was jailed after stabbing a pregnant woman during a raid on a Post Office in Luton. He also faced drug offences and further counts of violence. Both men denied the charges but were convicted by a jury at Plymouth Crown Court. 20 This week, as both men started to serve their sentences at different prisons, we discovered the extraordinary lengths that an undercover police officer went to so they could get details of the gang s drug operation and plans for a robbery. Detective Jordan Haley infiltrated the group and gained their trust after gaining a job at the Crown and Dragon pub in west London, where they based their criminal operations. In an exclusive interview, Detective Haley shared details of his remarkable two year undercover programme. 25 I was acting, really. I assumed a false name and got a job working at the bar in the pub where they met. They were there nearly every day and hired a private room in the back of the pub. I started off serving them drinks, but when I gained their trust I was asked to deliver messages to people waiting for them in the bar. I d then carry messages back to Parkin and Jones and started to piece together details of how their drug dealing worked. Page 2 of 6

3 Source A - 21st Century non-fiction 30 I was never really scared, funnily enough. These were very dangerous people, but I was on their side and they never suspected that I was undercover. I proved myself to them and they soon gave me small jobs delivering drugs to other pubs in London, where they would be sold. Then I d bring them money back to Parkin, who was always the one to handle the cash. 35 When Detective Haley discovered plans for the Post Office raid, he asked to be involved. At first they were surprised I wanted to be in on the raid, but I demanded I get my fair share of the money and they saw how serious I was. So I became their getaway driver. But the driver was never needed. 40 A massive police operation at the Post Office led to the arrest of Parkin and Jones. But the arrests came at a cost when a pregnant woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was stabbed by Parkin once he became aware of the police presence. Although the woman survived, her baby suffered complications and has since been born with a string of respiratory and heart problems. 45 I wish I could have done something to help that woman, says Detective Haley, who was sitting in the getaway car at the time of the raid. I saw her go into the Post Office and I really wanted to warn her, but I had a job to do. Getting an arrest and breaking up the operations of this terrible organisation was the priority for me. I had spent two whole years working on it and I couldn t blow it at the last minute. It was a good result for Detective Haley, but it came at a cost. 50 I got so totally immersed in the culture of that gang that it became really difficult returning to normal work after it. I became a different person, mixed with different people and I had to distance all my old friends so that they didn t get involved or blow my cover. But the biggest impact for Detective Haley came when the arrests were made. 55 From that point, as soon as they discovered what I had been doing, I had to assume yet another identity. I ve been given a new name, relocated to a different part of the country and started work in a different police force. I m not sure I d get involved in another undercover operation. It s an incredibly rewarding thing to do if it all works out. But I ve got a girlfriend now and I want to start a family. That s not something you can do when you re living a lie with criminals.

4 Source B - 19th Century literary non-fiction The Expressman and the Detective The following extracts are taken from The Expressman and the Detective by Allan Pinkerton. Pinkerton was a private detective in the late 1800s and wrote many books about his cases. Here, he has been tasked with solving the robbery of some packages of money. The packages were sent by express train and it is a railway employee, Maroney, who is the main suspect. Pinkerton sends one of his men undercover. Extract One: Having given him his instructions, I started him off on the first train, giving him a letter of introduction to the Vice-President. On Porter s arriving in Montgomery he sent me particulars of the case, from which I learned that while Maroney was temporarily filling the position of agent, among other packages sent to the Montgomery office, on the twenty-seventh of January, 1859, were four containing, in the aggregate, forty thousand dollars, of which one, of two thousand five hundred dollars, was to be sent to Charleston, S. C., and the other three, of thirty thousand, five thousand, and two thousand five hundred respectively, were intended for Augusta. These were receipted for by Maroney, and placed in the vault to be sent off the next day. On the twenty-eighth the pouch was given to the messenger, Mr. Chase, and by him taken to Atlanta. When the pouch was opened, it was found that none of these packages were in it, although they were entered on the way-bill which accompanied the pouch, and were duly checked off. The poor messenger was thunder-struck, and for a time acted like an idiot, plunging his hand into the vacant pouch over and over again, and staring vacantly at the way-bill. The Assistant Superintendent of the Southern Division was in the Atlanta office when the loss was discovered, and at once telegraphed to Maroney for an explanation. Receiving no reply before the train started for Montgomery, he got aboard and went directly there. On his arrival he went to the office and saw Maroney, who said he knew nothing at all of the matter. He had delivered the packages to the messenger, had his receipt for them, and of course could not be expected to keep track of them when out of his possession. Page 4 of 6

5 Source B - 19th Century literary non-fiction Extract Two: Porter remained in Montgomery, keeping in the good graces of Maroney and his friends, not that Maroney easily took any one into his confidence; on the contrary, although he was social with every one, he kept his affairs closely to himself. 5 Porter never forced himself on Maroney s company, but merely dropped in, apparently by accident, at Patterson s and other saloons frequented by Maroney, and by holding himself rather aloof, managed to draw Maroney towards him. 10 Maroney used to walk out of town towards the plantations, and Porter, by making himself acquainted with the planters and overseers of the surrounding country, discovered that Maroney s walks were caused by a young lady, the daughter of a wealthy planter; but no new developments were made in regard to the robbery. 15 I instructed Porter to get in with any slaves who might be employed as waiters at Patterson s, and worm from them all the information possible in regard to the habitués of the place. There were several men with whom Maroney used to have private meetings at the saloon, and Porter learned from one of the negroes what took place at them. Maroney would take an occasional hand at euchre, but never played for large stakes. There was little doubt but that he had a share in the gambling bank. He frequented the stable where Yankee Mary was kept, and often himself drove her out. From the way the parties at Patterson s talked, the negro was positive that she belonged to Maroney. 20 He received several letters from his wife, which Green saw her post, and Porter found he received in due time. So far all my plans had worked well. The regular reports I received from my detectives showed that they were doing their duty and watching carefully all that occurred. Porter, about this time, learned that Maroney intended to make a business trip through Tennessee, and that he would, in all probability, go to Augusta, Ga., and New Orleans Everything tended to show that he was about to leave Montgomery, and I put Roch, my Dutchman, on the alert. I wrote out full instructions and sent them to Roch; ordered him to keep a strict watch on Maroney, as he might be going away to change the money, and told him to telegraph me immediately if anything happened. It was my intention to buy any money he might get changed, as the bankers in Montgomery stated that they would be able to identify some of the stolen bills. I warned Roch against coming in contact with Maroney on his journey, as I surmised that he was going away to see if he would be followed. This was certainly his intention. For some time I had feared that Maroney had some idea of Porter s reasons for stopping in Montgomery, and felt that if he had, he would be completely disabused of it by discovering that Porter did not follow him. He was an uncommonly shrewd man and had formed a pretty good opinion of detectives and of his ability to outwit them. Page 5 of 6

6 Source B - 19th Century literary non-fiction 35 He had seen the best detectives from New York, New Orleans and other places completely baffled. He expected to be followed by a gentlemanly appearing man, who would drink and smoke occasionally, wear a heavy gold watch chain, and have plenty of money to spend; but the idea of being followed by a poor old Dutchman never entered his head. 40 I charged Roch not to pay any attention to Maroney or to appear to do so until he started to leave Montgomery, and concluded by saying that I felt I could trust him to do all in his power for the agency and for my honor. Maroney made his preparations for departure, all his movements being closely watched by Porter. Page 6 of 6
