Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Quote McGarry's lawyer, Allan Macleod, had argued there were several "factual inaccuracies" in the narrative read to the court last week. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-48231048 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Think he's being serious from the comments. [/url] https://twitter.com/WingsScotland/status/1121072651164844033The alt Nats are a law unto themselves. Nobody could have seen her pleading guilty? Really? Then a man pretending to be a woman calling her a “dishonest bitch”, and some others trying to spin it as a Tory conspiracy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I am quite shocked that she received a prison sentence. Obviously the defence notes in view of sentencing are meant to make you feel for the defendant, but to have suffered a miscarriage this week, be a mother to an 18 month old child, and then by being sent to prison resulting in potential job losses for her partner in order to look after the child, I wonder if the judge could have considered some other punitive method. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough shit. She knew prison was on cards so rather careless to get pregnant. Edited June 6, 2019 by Rowan 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She probably thought another baby on the way would give her a better chance of a non custodial sentence. If she'd fessed up from the start, promised to pay back all the money eventually, and used the excuse of being disorganised and inexperienced, she might have got off with community service, preferably 5 years in a foodbank. Instead she denied everything for as long as she could, then tried to withdraw her guilty pleas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also took her two months contact mental health team which just happened to be the weekend before hearing. Again I’m rather cynical about that too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
