CCTV: Southend gang member locked up

CCTV: Southend gang member jailed CCTV: Southend gang member jailed

A GANG-MEMBER has been jailed after he was was caught on CCTV terrifying innocent people in Southend High Street.

The bandana-clad 15-year-old was seen swinging a bike chain around his head as he approached passers-by.

He was caught after CCTV operators spotted his behaviour - and police were called to arrest him outside the Odeon cinema.

When he was picked up he was wearing a red bandana which is a distinguishing signature of the GPD or ‘Get Paid Daily’ gang.

Full story in today's Echo. Watch the CCTV here.

Scum, he get a slapped wrist! Will come back and do it again to your Nan or Grandpa. To think soon, he will pick up a fortnightly welfare cheque that we will be paying for, makes you sick!

The new gang name can be SOF

If the police know about these GPD scrotes, why don't they just arrest the lot of the little scumbags?

His parents and the low-life piece of s**t with him in the CCTV should join him in jail.
If that is where he ends up. Probably get a holiday in Barbados as he's 'misunderstood'.
This is just typical of the area now and nothing will be done unless it happens to a councillor or a member of their family.
The place should be nuked.

Oh, and the muppet in this story balled his eyes out in court, just like the most of them do when caught, proper "bad men" aren't they! LOL

Shame he never fell under the car wheel, but knowing this country, the driver would have been fined for dangerous driving!
Let's hope this scum gets what's coming!

I am the mother of one of the 'GPD'. For the record I am neither a scumbag or a bad parent. Strange as it may sound I bought my children up with manners and respect. My son became involved in this gang through school. Futures Community College to be precise (where a large percentage of the GPD came from). I was completely unaware of what my son had become involved in until it was to late. My son (like a lot of the GPD) is white, British and from a 'nice', normal, loving family. Unfortunately as a parent I am not able to control every part of my children's lives, thoughts or actions. What my son has done, sickens me to the core. I neither understand or condone his behaviour. I have however stood by my son since I found out what he did. He has made terrible, awful choices in his life. But I am not going to throw him on the scrap heap, where he would doubtless fall into a life of further crime. Instead i am showing him, that through hard work, facing up to your mistakes and apologising for them, you can change!

I bet your a right naughty little lady. If you was born in 1980 that makes you 32. Perfect. While your son is out terrorising the community, me and you could be terrorising each other ;)

I agree with you. Written English is about as rare as capital letters for county names, such as Essex and at the beginning of sentences.

So what has your son done that has sickened you so much? I guess what ever it is, is criminal so my question is did you report him to the police?

Yes shoebury52, I did report him to the police. And he was involved in a street robbery.

I feel sorry for you and hope he realises what he has done to you and others and makes the decision to change and sticks to it

Violence is the only thing they understand, they need a right good kicking, total little morons, I know the law wont support the decent people who could give these plastic gangsters a true sorting out,it worked in parts of Glasgow i know that for sure,as long as it wasnt likely to cause permanent damage to the thug the law didnt see it.. should try it!!

I'm up for for joining a community force of adults to clear the scum off the streets. The police gave up years ago which is why the jackals have taken over the streets and laugh at both the police and justice system. And to the mother of the lad in the GPD - I'd chuck my lad out if he got involved with scumbags like this stupid plastic gang of braindead idiots.
