A Scottish woman has slammed a legal loophole that allows her brother to control their mother's estate - despite the fact he killed her.
Lorraine Taggart Bristow has criticised the Scottish Government for failing to close the legal loophole which has let him control his victim’s £500,000 estate for eight years.
The woman is calling on MSPs to change the law which allows Ross Taggart to legally remain in sole charge of their mum Carol-Anne’s estate. Taggart, 38, attacked his 54-year-old mum at the home they shared in Dunfermline and hid her body under a caravan.
