Shamed wife-abusing Scots cop working as undertaker leaving mourners shocked

A shamed police sergeant who terrorised three women over a 26-year period is now working as an undertaker.

Mourners have been left horrified that Iain Pittams has had a hands-on role in the funerals of their loved ones. One said they were left shaken after arriving at a relative’s service to find Pittams driving the hearse, carrying the coffin and handing out cords at the graveside.

He is employed by funeral homes and funeral services company Dignity PLC, which boasts on its website it only hires “caring individuals” with “compassion” and “respect”. The 54-year-old secured the job at the firm’s base in Kilmarnock, after having to quit the force when he was exposed as a multiple wife beater.
