Steele and Whomes
TWO men jailed for the notorious “Essex Boys” gangland murders have lost their appeal against life sentences.
Michael Steele, 64, from Great Bentley, and Jack Whomes, 45, from Brockford, Suffolk, were found guilty in 1998 of killing Patrick Tate, Anthony Tucker and Craig Rolfe in Rettendon.
A committee of three judges has now rejected their latest appeal.
