Amy Fox

Amy Fox was jailed for five years after being found with 1.27 kilos of cocaine at Heathrow Airport.
The 20-year-old was recruited by an Edinburgh drugs gang to bring the coke - worth £72,000 - from Gambia in west Africa.
The former North Berwick High School pupil was jailed at Isleworth Crown Court after admitting smuggling the drugs.
Neighbours say that Amy is a bright young woman from a respectable family who fell into the wrong company.
Friends say that her spiral from fun-loving schoolgirl to international drugs mule began when she became friends with a youth from a local criminal family.
The 19-year-old is serving two years in jail for an axe attack in September inside Haddington Sheriff Court. Amy started dabbling in drugs when they met around four years ago.
A friend said: "It's a tragedy. Amy is an intelligent and funny girl from a nice family.
"But she met a bad bunch of people and started dabbling in drugs and got involved in the drugs scene in Edinburgh.

"She was a bit naive and vulnerable at the time and got caught up in something she shouldn't have. It's tragic she has been sent to prison but I guess it's a lesson to others."

Another friend said: "Amy was duped by these really evil people and used to bring drugs back to Britain. This family were the start of Amy's ruin.

"They've made life hell for everyone in North Berwick and are despised."

Amy was promised £5000 to take the drugs into the UK from Gambia, a popular winter sunshine holiday resort.
