Sheriff Christopher Shead was interested to find out what Fairlie’s grandparents’ attitudes were to the offender and to the offences he committed.
He deferred sentence on Fairlie, 32 Highland Dykes Crescent, Bonnybridge, until May 5 to ascertain what the victims’ feelings were on the matter in a kind of victim impact statement.
