The Essex Boys Murders 'The Life of Tony Tucker'

On December 6, 1995, Craig Rolfe, Tony Tucker and Pat Tate were murdered inside a Range Rover on a quiet country lane in Rettendon Essex.

All three of them were "blasted" by a shotgun from close range, lying blood-covered and slumped in the vehicle until they were discovered by two local farmers the next morning.

The victims were known to be part of the 'Essex Boys' drug gang, and numerous theories formed surrounding how they came to be shot eight times in a peaceful Essex village.

Got no sympathy for tucker or Rolfe after what they did to Kevin Whitaker. What goes around comes around.

I can’t help but think that as much story intrigues me they weren’t very nice and probably got what was right. You live by it…

GREED. ....the same thing that killed all of the supposed badasses in the leeds club scene. If they could just make the money without needing the "hard man" reputation, they had a chance. Most of them arent bright enough to understand this though, so whether it be by police or fellow criminals....or just local skallies wanting a reputation so are willing to kill them, they are doomed.

PUMPING IRON NEVER BEATS A PUMPING SHOTGUN 😂😂😂

Big thing to remember is that Tucker was wealthy and Tate was not.

[markevans]

The girl that died from Extacy Tablet that was supplied by Tucker was the daughter of a Police would go down that track.

[barrybark]

odd that the windscreen of the rangerover didnt crack when at least 2 shots fired in its direction

[Leeroy]

Not all that much about his life or how his life evolved just mostly about day of death n going over old ground n unlimited range rover pics
