Grinning killers mock victims in sickening Instagram posts from behind bars
TWO grinning killers mock their victims in a sickening Instagram post from jail, sneering: “There deed n weer no hahah.”
Lifer Ross Fisher, 31, also gives the V-sign as knife fiend Ben McCulloch, 28, points in approval in vile snaps thought to have been taken on a smuggled phone.
The brazen social media pictures — another of which is captioned, “In Shotts or calling the Shotts hahah” — are now being probed by chiefs at the maximum-security nick in Lanarkshire.
Blasting the pair, Scottish Tory shadow community safety minister Russell Findlay said last night: “Crime victims should not be exposed to the ugly gloating of violent and dangerous criminals.
“I would expect the Scottish Prison Service to investigate whether this was recorded using one of the mobiles which were issued by the SNP Government to every prisoner or on a smuggled handset.
“Either way, it is unacceptable and every effort must be made to end what appears to be a growing problem.”
In the illicit posts, the pair mock Kenny Reilly, 29 — murdered by Fisher with three other gang thugs — and Stephen Quigley, 26, a pal who McCulloch stabbed and left to die.
One twisted caption reads: “F*** the kenny reilly and Steg Quigley.
“There deed n weer no hahah.”
McCulloch also tags Fisher in a reply that brags “easy days”.
The shocking post includes a track from London hip hop artist Rimzee about life in jail — including video stills of the artist in a cell putting a blade into a toothbrush.
McCulloch was jailed for nine-and-a-half years last October for knifing Stephen before leaving him to die outside Paisley’s Royal Alexandra Hospital.
His body was found the next morning.
Medics could have saved him had he been taken to A&E.
The horror came after the pair had been drinking in McCulloch’s flat in Barrhead, Renfrewshire, in March 2021.
Fisher was caged for at least 22 years with three mob pals for the gun execution of rival drug dealer Reilly, 29, at traffic lights in Maryhill, Glasgow, in 2018.
The Scottish Prison Service spokesman said it “continues to invest in new technology to detect, deter and reduce” the supply of mobile phones in jails.
