Lawyer struck off over role in £1 6m property fraud scheme

This was all designed to fund a lavish lifestyle for him and his wife Lorraine, 54.  Craxton, who qualified in November 1983, was granted immunity from prosecution along with other lawyers after agreeing to give evidence against the McLarens during their trial at the High Court in Glasgow. The case became Scotland’s longest ever trial and saw McLaren convicted of 29 charges and jailed for 11-and-a-half years. Craxton, of Dumbarton, had removed himself from the roll of solicitors but the case went before the Scottish Solicitors’ Discipline Tribunal (SSDT) after the Law Society decided they still had to act. The SSDT panel ruled he should never be allowed to return to the profession and branded his action “serious and reprehensible”.
