The Second Chamber of the Supreme Court has ratified the sentence handed down by the National Court against the so-called ‘Clan of John Palmer’, the British convicted of fraud who died assassinated in his garden in the United Kingdom in 2015. In the judgment of the High Court to the that the SER has had access, the sentence issued by the National Court in September 2019 for nine of the 19 Palmer collaborators for the crimes of illicit association, possession of weapons, fraud and money laundering of clients of ” Time Sharing “in the south of Tenerife. It should be remembered that due to the undue delays, the court’s sentence was considered “lukewarm” since the members of the plot were only sentenced to fines and prison terms that did not exceed eight months, so none of the defendants entered in prison. In this way, a long judicial journey started by the magistrate Baltasar Garzón in 2000 ends.
The Prosecutor’s Office requested a 15-year sentence for John Palmer alias “Goldfinger” but was found dead in the garden of his home in Brentwood, England. The second autopsy of the corpse revealed that he died from the impact of two impacts from very small caliber bullets, so they were not detected in a preliminary forensic analysis.
