I Turned Phone Hacking from a Backstreet Business into Industrial-Scale Organised Crime... for the British Press

But I started life as the penniless son of Ukrainian immigrants.

Then I rose to be one of the most powerful news executives in Rupert Murdoch’s empire.

My dad was in Hitler’s SS. My mum was a Nazi slave – I was born ready for the Fleet Street cauldron.

At the News of the World, I broke the biggest exclusives.

However, I discovered a secret weapon that would revolutionise news gathering: the use of Illegal Private Investigators to hack and blag.

I turned the ‘dark arts’ from a cheap trick to get showbiz stories into a multi-million pound operation.

But, one day the paper intercepted the voicemails of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler.

The phone hacking scandal erupted and I went to prison – sacrificed to save the boss’s global business.

Though once out of Britain’s toughest jail, I swore to tell the world what really happened behind the scenes.

I delivered the biggest story of my career – a tell-all witness statement to the High Court.

Under oath, I blew the lid on hacking at other papers such as The Sun, forcing Murdoch to shell out a billion pounds more, after celebrities such as Heather Mills and Sienna Miller mounted huge claims.
