Killed Edinburgh gangster Marc Webley headbutted his rapist brother after blasting him for harassing a 12-year-old girl.
A harrowing video taken by the killed hood shows him attacking sibling Don Webley, who is out of frame in the clip, in an Edinburgh pub just weeks before he died, reports The Record.

Marc then says: 'Go and go away Don. I've had a good night all night.
'She's a 12-year-old lassie ya f***** idiot.'
Don slurs in reply: 'Yes I know, I just like hanging about with her.'
Marc responds 'F*** sake', before the footage ends.
The video was posted online by a gang member of drugs boss Mark Richardson and the Daniel crime clan.
It said: 'Don Webley, convicted rapist.'
Don was jailed was back in April for seven years for a sickening sex offence which saw his victim running into the street half naked and screaming for help.
The woman had earlier dubbed him 'a beast' and pleaded for help in messages before she fled from the Edinburgh flat where she was subjected to the ordeal.
He denied raping the woman at his flat in Granton Medway, Edinburgh, on September 18, 2022. He claimed in a special defence that sexual activity between them was consensual.

But a jury at the High Court in Edinburgh convicted him on a majority verdict in February 2025 of committing the sex crime during which he grabbed the woman, removed her lower clothing, licked her ear and raped her.
Marc died after being gunned down outside a pub in Edinburgh ahead of the Bells on Hogmanay 2023.
He had taunted enemies on social media in the lead up to his death.
Three people are due to stand trial over the shooting of Marc, outside a pub in Edinburgh's West Granton Road.
Grant Hunter, 33, Emma McVie, 26, and Gary Robertson, 21, deny the charges.

Trump's Justice Department is investigating whether DC police officials falsified crime data

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has opened an investigation into whether police officials in Washington, D.C., have falsified data to make crime rates appear lower than they are, according to a person familiar with the probe who wasn't authorized to publicly discuss an open investigation. The investigation comes amid an escalating — and political — showdown between the Trump administration and the city over control of the police department. It wasn't immediately clear what federal laws could have been violated by the possible manipulation of crime data. President Donald Trump claimed that violent crime in Washington is getting worse as he ordered a federal takeover of the city's police department, flooding the streets with hundreds of National Guard members. But he exaggerated or misstated many facts about public safety in Washington, where crime rates have fallen in recent years. Mayor Muriel Bowser's office declined to comment on the investigation. A spokesperson for U.S. Attorney Jeannine Pirro's office in Washington didn't respond to emails seeking comment. The New York Times was first to report on the investigation. Earlier this year, a Metropolitan Police Department commander suspected of manipulating crime data was placed on paid administrative leave, NBC Washington reported. Bowser told the television station last Tuesday that the city's police chief 'had concerns about one commander, investigated all seven districts and verified that the concern was with one person.' 'So, we are completing that investigation and we don't believe it implicates many cases,' the mayor added. Former interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin, who was Pirro's predecessor and Trump's first pick to lead the office, said Washington's violent crime had decreased in the first 100 days since Trump returned to the White House in January. In an April 28 news release, Martin's office said MPD data showed that violent crime had dropped by 25 percent since the start of 2025. 'We are proving that strong enforcement and smart policies can make our communities safer,' Martin said in the release. ___ Associated Press writer Matt Brown contributed to this report.

Women who stole thousands of pounds worth of Jellycat toys fail to show for sentencing

Arrest warrants have been issued for two women who did not show up at court for sentencing after stealing thousands of pounds worth of Jellycat toys. Warrants without bail were issued for Sarah Jordan, 35, of no fixed abode, and Amber Clarke, 24, of Nine Elms, south-west London, after they failed to turn up for their sentencing at Wimbledon Magistrates' Court on Tuesday. Jordan was due to be sentenced for eight counts of theft from shops in Kingston upon Thames and Wimbledon between December 2024 to May 2025 and for failing to surrender for a previous hearing at the same court. The theft charges include six counts of theft where she was said to have stolen numerous Jellycats valued at a total of £1,716.57. Food and clothing were taken in the other thefts, according to the charges. Clarke had previously pleaded guilty to 16 counts of theft in shops in south and south-west London between February 2024 to January 2025. They included thefts on two days where she stole 16 Jellycat soft toys worth £4,454.84 and another day when she 'stole a number of soft toys' to the value of £100 belonging to Waterstones in Lambeth, the charges state. Various grocery and laundry items were stolen in the other thefts. Clarke has also pleaded guilty to a charge of obstructing or resisting a constable in the execution of their duty, assault by beating, failure to surrender for a previous hearing at the same court and assaulting an emergency worker.
