Johnston, 26, was murdered in a late-night shooting as he sat in his car

We can reveal she had the body art etched in memory of the mobster, 26, who was shot in the head as he sat in his car in Kinning Park, Glasgow, in November 2016.

It shows wings around the initials ‘EJ’, with a halo above then plus his birth and death dates.

It’s inscribed: “If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun. Friends till the end.”

Gall’s gesture was revealed in Facebook posts which emerged as she was locked up this week for dealing drugs.

We told how she admitted supplying heroin — on her return to the High Court in Glasgow, where her evidence in 2018 helped convict hitman David Scott, 40.

During his trial, Gall sobbed as she told how she was one of the last people to speak to Johnston.

Scott was caged for 22 years for gunning down her pal at traffic lights.

Gall marked the fifth anniversary of Johns-ton’s murder in another social media message in November 2021.

She wrote: “Miss you more each year, big guy. Legends live on in our hearts forever.”

Gall was nabbed after cops found £39,000 worth of Class A drugs plus cash at two flats in Springburn, Glasgow, the court heard this week.

The swoops came after her boyfriend Craig Shaw, 31, was caged for four years in February 2020 for dealing heroin.

Judge Thomas Welsh KC remanded Gall in custody along with Catherine McCann, 40, who pled guilty to smack and cocaine trafficking.

They will both be sentenced next month.
