@darkest.crimes: A footballer flew to the UK with two guns packed. He told the court he'd rather shoot himself in the foot than finish the job. The jury convicted him of conspiracy to murder anyway. Natland pleaded guilty to the guns but swore in court he never meant to pull the trigger, calling it a "pickle" he'd rather shoot his own foot to escape. Jurors convicted him of conspiracy anyway. Did his own words prove intent, or just panic? Follow @darkest.crimes. Every case has a darker detail. #darkestcrimes #truecrime #johannesnatland
