Would probably be the allegations of sexual misconduct that police were investigating unless he’s done something else in past 24 hours .

Will wait to see what transpires court appearance may be this afternoon .

Two charges of attempted r@pe.

Nine charges of sexual assault.

Prosecutors have a great way of making loads of charges together that all come under the same incident because they have more chance of at least one charge sticking

The two civil servants who investigated the allegations created retrospective guidelines and drew up a critical report based on their enactment!

They and their methods were severely criticised in court by a senior law lord. I cannot understand why they have not been charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice.

There is something murky going on behind the scenes.

Because they were investigating a complaint on behalf of the "employer", not as part of a criminal investigation.

That is why Salmond sought judicial review in the civil court, that the employer - a public body - had not followed its own process.

The criminal investigation is separate.

I would argue that the civil case feeds in to the criminal investigation. I doubt whether Police Scotland would have entirely ignored the actions of the civil procedure, flawed though it undoubtedly was.

Through observation and third party engagement on behalf of a friend who was unjustly accused, I know that the atmosphere within the justice system in relation to anything to do with inappropriate behaviour, either at work or in the home, has been skewed by Holyrood "sending out a message" to accompany its legislation.

You can not rely on the unsullied purity of justice from the Scottish justice system, unfortunately.

Has the internal case not been put on hold given the multiple charges by the cps/police?

Usually does in some instances, also the balance of proof and the threshold to charge may differ in bothhis employer and the judiciary..

You are either with the snp or you are the enemy and that will carry into any jury.

I fully expect his sole defence will be he can't get a fair trial.

Tipped in his favour - after a trial, with a jury.

People will either be upset or pleased about the verdict - but justice, like it or not, has been done.

Those who feel the evidence was against him should consider that it, clearly, was not strong enough to convict him.

In a criminal trial like his, if there is any reasonable doubt at all, the jury has no choice but to acquit.

In Scotland, there's the option for a Not Proven verdict, which was given on the attempted R charge.

Given how very difficult it is to get an actual R to trial, let alone secure a conviction; that Not Proven is actually quite a damning verdict.

However, it is not enough to deprive him of his liberty; curtailed as it is (for us all) by Covid 19.

The not proven verdict is an unusual and highly controversial feature of the Scottish legal system which in practice is exactly the same as a verdict of not guilty

.if he was not innocent, he would have been found guilty in the high court of Scotland

he has been fully cleared even though he was stitched up and there was certain evidence in his favour he was not allowed to produce to court
