A leading Scottish lawyer had his £120,000 sports car attacked during a 14-month stalking campaign by an obsessive former client. Joanne Maxwell caused extensive scratches to the luxury Mercedes on at least two occasions.
She turned up repeatedly at Diarmid Bruce’s office, demanding to see files, and pelted one of his colleagues with eggs. Maxwell, 34, now faces sentence after admitting a course of conduct that caused the Lanarkshire-based lawyer fear or alarm.
Hamilton Sheriff Court heard she used an unknown implement to damage the Mercedes, including carving an offensive word on the bonnet.
