RAPE survivor Ellie Wilson has slammed the Parole Board for Scotland after they set her attacker ex-boyfriend's hearing for Valentine's Day.
The 27-year-old justice campaigner, who was in a relationship with Daniel McFarlane when he raped her, appealed for compassion from the board to change the hearing to a less significant day, describing it as "highly distressing."
However, the board showed no flexibility and an oral hearing is currently scheduled to go ahead on February 14.
It follows a hearing on December 18 to decide whether McFarlane should be released from prison early. The board could not agree and requested an oral hearing at a later date.
Ellie, who waived her right to anonymity, told the Record: "Every time I think the justice system can't get worse, it does. I just couldn't believe what I was seeing when informed.
