Two jailed for role in £42m East Yorkshire cocaine smuggling plot
Passing sentence, Judge Mark Bury said he was “bewildered” how the men from rural Scotland with no previous criminal convictions had become part of the gang.
“It’s puzzling to try and work out how you became involved,” the judge said.
At a trial in October, Moran of Glenfyne Terrace, Ardrishaig was found guilty of conspiracy to import cocaine.
Livingstone, of Calton Avenue, Campbeltown, pleaded guilty to the same charge.
Colombian national Didier Tordecilla Reyes, 39, who pleaded guilty to importing cocaine, will be sentenced at a later date.
Another defendant Anthony McAllister, 33, of Aldersyde in Taynuilt, Scotland, was found not guilty on all the charges he faced.
