Two former sex workers who were picked up by Iain Packer say police failed to act on warnings that he was dangerous.

Two former sex workers who were picked up by Iain Packer say women needlessly suffered attacks after police failed to act on warnings that he was dangerous.

Packer evaded justice for almost two decades following the botched 2005 police inquiry into Emma's death. She said: "We were never believed. It was as if we didn't matter, because we put ourselves in these situations and it was our own fault."Nicky raised her own concerns about Packer in 2006 after he was aggressive with her. She noted his name in a "dodgy punters book" held at Base 75, a former welfare centre for sex workers, based in Glasgow.

"On the one hand I'm happy. This is a day I never thought I'd see, that he's finally being convicted."I am glad Emma's mum is getting her peace and this is closure for us all."More than 20 women spoke out in court. A pattern of abusive behaviour and control was a key theme throughout their testimonies.

Caitlin worked on the streets in Glasgow for 10 years and during that time claims she was raped, sexually assaulted and, on one occasion, abducted by a client.Caitlin says she was "scared" to give evidence against Packer, but that it "needed to be done".
