Glasgow social services worker got vulnerable addict pregnant and threatened her not tell anyone

A Glasgow social services worker has been banned from working in the profession after having a sexual relationship with a vulnerable addict while she was in the care of his employer.

David Phillips began the relationship with the woman while she was a resident at his work, ultimately causing her to become pregnant and have to undergo an abortion.

He was found to have used 'controlling behaviour' to hide the relationship which included threatening that she would lose her place at the care service if she was to tell anyone and telling her that the pregnancy was 'her fault'.
