Scotland's most senior law faculty is set to investigate a lawyer, who represented a Glasgow University rapist, after he appeared to suggest that there was 'nothing wrong' with the sex attacker after he was found guilty of two counts of rape.
Daniel McFarlane, who studied at the city university, was represented by Lorenzo Alonzi during his trial when the 24-year-old was convicted of raping his then-girlfriend, Ellie Wilson, last year.
The brave woman, who has waived her right to anonymity, submitted a complaint to the Scottish Legal Complaints Commission (SLCC) about Alonzi's behaviour after he made what she called "re-traumatising" statements about her in open court, reports the Record.
