She continued her harassment with another message to Mahamud, saying: “You want to rip me off, you want to be a drug kingpin, go look at your house. I will show you. Watch your back. I will be shedding blood soon.”
Documenting Her Trip on Instagram
Betro’s social media activity, as reported by The Times, showed that she meticulously documented her trip to the UK from August to September 2019.
In one Instagram post, she mentioned visiting her “partner in crime” in Manchester. Another post, from the day before the first attempted shooting, showed Betro posing with devil horns.
Additional posts described her attendance at the Tranzmission Festival in Crystal Palace, London, and a boat tour of the River Thames.
Throughout her stay in the UK, Betro lodged at various hotels in Birmingham, Brighton, Derby, and Manchester, including a stay at a Radisson Blue hotel, according to court testimonies.
