Updated: Stuart Walker indecency claim was a lie
(Sorry for the down-and dirty post I put this up with. I was doing it from my phone at the time. Here’s the cleaned up version…dm)
And of course no one knew this yesterday right?
A LYING rapist was behind a “malicious” child abuse accusation against murder victim Stuart Walker.
Barman Stuart’s grieving family were devastated yesterday by reports that he had been accused of indecency against a 12-year-old boy.
But the Record can reveal the man who made the allegation was a 44-year-old with a long criminal record including rape, assault, car theft and housebreaking.
And prosecutors planned to throw out the case.
The man who lodged the complaint cannot be named because it would identify his son, the subject of the allegation.
But as police continued their investigation into Stuart’s brutal murder in Cumnock, Ayrshire, last Saturday, a Crown Office source said the abuse allegation had been considered “malicious”.
The source said: “It was being considered by the fiscal when Stuart died but there was absolutely no corroboration for the allegation.
“The claim was that Stuart placed his hand down the boy’s trousers. It appeared to be utter nonsense and was going nowhere.
“Stuart has no history of such offending. He has a couple of motoring offences but that’s it.”
The insider said the incident was alleged to have taken place on August 20 at the home of a friend of Stuart.
He said: “Among people there were Stuart, the 12-year-old boy and his mum. The mum’s partner wasn’t there but at one point spoke to her on the phone.
“He was giving her a hard time and Stuart is said to have shouted a comment along the lines of, ‘You should get rid of him – he’s nothing but trouble.’
“The mum’s partner overheard and was furious. There was no suggestion at the time Stuart had inappropriately touched any child and one theory is the partner sought revenge by reporting Stuart to the police.”
Now’s the time for all the media that ran this bit yesterday to step up with correct information
