My Defence Team

 Now that all Legal Aid issues have finally been resolved my defence team is now in place. Unfortunately Donald Findlay QC is now unable to act as my senior counsel due to commitments to other cases, but I am extremely pleased to have secured an excellent replacement in Frances McMenamin QC.

 Junior counsel, John McLaughlin, and human rights lawyer, Gerry Sweeney, remain as members of the team.

 I will be attending another intermediate diet in Stonehaven this Wednesday, which will be my eighth court appearance to date.

    Good luck with your case. From what I have been reading, Scotland's Judicial System, if it wasn't for Jersey's, could be the most corrupt in the western "democratic" world.
