Exclusive - Convicted drug dealer Dean Thornton - who was one of several involved in the horror abduction and gruesome torture of a young man six years ago - performs a rap about the feud in his newly released music video on Dearfxch TV via YouTube.

A Drogheda feud gang member has swapped a life of crimes for rhymes after launching his rap career with a highly polished music video.

The 26-year-old who is one of the main players linked to the anti-Maguire side was jailed for three years for his role in the horror abduction and torture of Aaron Rochford in a house in the Moneymore estate in the Louth town in November 2018 and was released in 2022. The highly polished professional video opens with an overview scene of the Moneymore estate in Drogheda where several of the so called anti-Maguire faction members live - with Thornton rapping about a Glock semi-automatic gun "chillin by the sofa," as well as rapping about the start of the feud in 2018 that claimed four lives.

Price was videoed in 2020 toasting the murder of serial killer Robbie Lawlor, who was shot dead in Belfast in April 2020. The anti-Maguire faction had links to violent hitman Lawlor who was named in the High Court as the person who shot Owen Maguire and left him paralysed in July 2018 in a murder attempt that started the deadly feud.
