A leading lawyer could be kicked out of the prestigious Faculty of Advocates for sending “extremely demeaning” text messages about a rape crisis charity boss.
Brian McConnachie, KC, boasted he would have sex with Sandy Brindley “just to have something over her”.
A disciplinary committee said his comments were “akin to blackmail”. It added he was guilty of “serious and reprehensible” behaviour in a series of salacious texts, including sending a sexually explicit picture of himself from the toilets of a high court minutes after defending a rape accused.
