WARDERS' MARSHALL CASE ANGER

PRISON officers have told of the shame felt in the wake of the death of vulnerable prisoner Allan Marshall.

- BY MARK McGIVERN

The 30-year-old dad-of-two was on remand at HMP Edinburgh in March 2015 when he was restrained face down by 17 prison officers. He died four days later.

His family have now received an apology from the prison service, Crown Office and Police Scotland after the Court of Session heard that the level of force went beyond what was necessary.

But the Daily Record has now been contacted by officers at Edinburgh's Saughton jail who feel that justice has not been done over Allan's death.

And they believe it would have been better for the SPS if men had been charged and convicted for their “unacceptable” conduct that day, which led to Allan's death.

They were, instead, given immunity from prosecution in a deal struck by the Crown Office ahead of them giving evidence at a fatal accident inquiry.

The prison source said: “This case stained the reputation of officers and there is a lot of anger about the way it happened and the way it has been dealt with.
