Let's talk about Carl Stewart.
If you were a high-level criminal in Europe around 2020, you didn't use WhatsApp. You used EncroChat. It was a bespoke, encrypted network sold specifically to organized crime. Costing thousands of dollars a year, these modified Android phones had no GPS, no camera (software disabled), and a panic wipe feature. Criminals trusted it implicitly. They talked openly about drug shipments, hits, and money laundering.
Carl Stewart, a major drug dealer from Liverpool, was one of them. He went by the handle Toffeeforce.
He moved heroin, cocaine, and MDMA. He trusted the encryption. He trusted the device.
But he made a mistake that sounds like a joke.
The Breadcrumb: The Stilton.
Stewart was at a Marks & Spencer grocery store. He bought a block of mature blue Stilton cheese. He thought it looked good.
So, he took a picture of it. He held the block of cheese in the palm of his hand and snapped a photo to share with a contact on EncroChat. Maybe to brag, maybe just making conversation.
He assumed it was safe. After all, the photo didn't show his face. It didn't show his house. It didn't have GPS coordinates attached.
It was just cheese and a hand.
The Investigation.
What Stewart didn't know was that French and Dutch police had already hacked the EncroChat servers. They were reading everything in real-time (Operation Venetic). But reading the messages wasn't enough. They had the what, but they needed the who. Toffeeforce was just a nickname. They needed a real identity.
Merseyside Police analyzed the photo of the cheese. They didn't care about the cheese. They looked at the hand holding it.
Modern smartphone cameras are incredible. They capture 12-megapixel images with stunning clarity. The photo was so sharp that the forensic team could zoom in on the fingers holding the package.
They could see the friction ridges. They could see the loops and whorls.
They pulled a full fingerprint directly from a photograph sent over an encrypted chat.
The Collapse.
They ran the fingerprint against the police database. It matched Carl Stewart.
That single biometric data point connected the Toffeeforce persona to a physical human being. He was arrested and sentenced to 13 years and 6 months in prison.
He fell because he posted a picture of his lunch.
