A judge heard today how Convery – who previously owned a tyre firm in Paisley – was released on January 17, 2020. But, by April of that year, he was already back drug trafficking – while complaining the Covid lockdown had made it "jail bait". The court heard there was no actual "physical" recovery of drugs due to the messages being found some time after they were sent. The court heard he went on to complain business was "a wee bit slow". Convery later replied that he would arrange for drugs to be collected.
