David Hunt (3)

Biography

David Charles Hunt (born April 1961) is an English suspected organised crime boss linked to violence, fraud, prostitution, money laundering and murder. He heads a gang dubbed 'The Hunt Syndicate', which has been described as being an extensive criminal empire that has so far evaded significant penetration from law enforcement. Hunt is known in gangland circles as Long Fella due to his height of 6 ft 5 inches. In a confidential police report from the early 2000s which was later leaked online, Hunt's gang was said to include family members and the father of well-known reality TV star Mark Wright. Hunt has been described by Metropolitan Police sources as being "too big to bring down". He became a close friend and associate of Reggie Kray, visiting him in prison in 2000 just prior to his death. He was the owner of Hunt's Waste Recycling in Dagenham, which was the centre of the "largest fire in several years" in London during the nearby 2012 Olympics closing ceremony, with 40 fire engines and over 200 fire fighters attending the scene. Now known as Connect Waste, the recycling centre is run by Phil Mitchell who is a long time friend of Hunt's.
