Jack Straw, the Secretary of State for Justice, has announced a crackdown on prisoners using Facebook after it emerged that a gangland kingpin has spent the past two months using the social networking site to intimidate his enemies.Colin Gunn, whose reign of fear in Nottingham contributed to it being dubbed “assassination city”, is in a maximum security jail serving a minimum of 35 years for conspiracy to murder. Gunn, 42, masterminded the revenge killings of innocent couple John and Joan Stirland in their Lincolnshire bungalow in 2004, and was linked with the fatal shooting in 2003 of Nottingham jeweller Marian Bates.
