A Dumbarton couple have been left traumatised and fearing for their lives after 300 vigilantes targeted their home when false information from paedophile hunters circulated on social media.
The pair are now hiding in a safe house after David McLean, 37, was wrongfully exposed as a sex offender by hunt group Exposed Britain during a Facebook post made public in 2018.
In February this year, the post resurfaced and it sparked a crowd of angry locals gathering and rioting outside their home.
