Impact
Sentencing On Tuesday, defence advocate Gillan Ross KC said her first offender client was employed in the oil industry but has lost his job. "He is motivated to try and secure some form of employment upon his release from custody. "He recognises that he may still have issues and that is something that he will address in custody. "He will be accepting any offer of help given to him." Passing sentence, Lady Haldane told Moir it was clear "significant harm" has been caused.
