How HORRIFYING Was The Attack On Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel Actually?

 00:00:00 - 00:20:00In the YouTube video "How HORRIFYING Was The Attack On Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel Actually?", the speaker discusses the story of Steven Bonzo Daniel, a notorious gang leader in Glasgow, Scotland, who fell victim to a brutal attack in 2017. Bonzo, known as the Mastermind of a notorious Glasgow Empire, came to public attention in 2012 when his name surfaced in a government-sanctioned payday loans enterprise, revealing his connections with influential millionaires. In 2015, Bonzo was implicated in a heroin dealing investigation, but only one suspect was convicted and sentenced to 132 years in prison. Bonzo's close connections with powerful figures in the city were further highlighted in a cab service hijacking incident in 2015.

The attack on Bonzo was a result of a long-standing turf war between two Glasgow gangs, Daniels versus Lions, which had turned the city into a battleground of violence and bloodshed. The assault was so brutal that the attending doctor mistakenly believed Bonzo's injuries were gunshot wounds. Six men were charged with multiple counts of attempted murder in the trial at Glasgow High Court in January 2019, but Bonzo's account was rejected by the jury due to the Code of Silence. The attack on Bonzo had potential risks for innocent civilians and resulted in a staggering €6 million EUR cost to taxpayers and the sentencing of the six men to a combined total of 104 years in prison.

Bonzo's low-profile approach had raised speculation when he was frequently spotted with notorious figure Spencer "Hannibal the Cannibal" Millers, creating uncertainty about the future of the Daniel Clan. The Scottish police identified Bonzo as the Kingpin of the Daniels Clan after Jamie's demise, creating a power vacuum that favored his deadly rival gang, the Lions, to assert control over the lucrative narcotics and arms trade. The ongoing turf wars and shifting alliances created an uneasy calm, with the peace of the city hanging in the balance. The story of Steven Daniel serves as a stark reminder of the complexities and consequences of a life lived on the edge of legality.See more00:00:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "How HORRIFYING Was The Attack On Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel Actually?", the speaker delves into the story of Steven Bonzo Daniel, a notorious gang leader in Glasgow, Scotland.
