Scotland Crime LIVE as Aberdeen paedophile travelled 300 miles to meet girl, 13

Officers involved in the investigation into the murder of Emma Caldwell "will willingly work" with the public inquiry into failings around the case, a body representing senior operational leaders has said. The Association of Scottish Police Superintendents said it will work to "provide the answers that are needed", after the inquiry was announced by Scotland’s Justice Secretary Angela Constance.

Last week, Iain Packer, 51, was convicted of murdering Miss Caldwell and a litany of crimes against 21 other women, and is believed to be Scotland’s worst sex offender. He was interviewed by police the month after Miss Caldwell’s body was found, but only went on trial this year. Packer has indicated he will appeal against his convictions and the 36-year sentence handed down at the High Court in Glasgow.
