A GRIEVING mum told a Holyrood committee how she was forced to endure ‘a hellish merry go-round of obstruction’ while dealing with Police Scotland’s complaints process.
Tearful Stephanie revealed the heartache she has endured through since the death of Rhys, 19, and outlined the issues she feels exist in how unexplained deaths are investigated. “Every time I mentioned making a complaint, they would stall me or distract me. Then when I asked Alex O'Kane to represent me in February 2020, Police Scotland refused to put a mandate in place for him. They told him, in writing, that the investigation was still ongoing, despite it being closed six months earlier.”Stephanie says she believes changes must be made to allow for complaints to be lodged in a simpler way – and dealt with faster.
The legislation intends to embed good practice and underline the importance of maintaining the high standards expected of the force. The West of Scotland politician asked her in the chamber what her experience has done to her faith in Police Scotland.
