THE Scheme "star" Marvin Baird is in mourning after his daughter was found dead days before she was due to appear in court on drug charges.

Danielle Hamilton was discovered on Sunday morning at the Kilmarnock home she shared with her dad.

Police are still investigating her sudden death but it's understood that 26-year-old Danielle died from a drug overdose.

She was set to stand trial accused of dealing and supplying morphine and Etizolam tablets. Etizolam is described as a benzodiazepine-like substance similar to Valium but is 10 times more toxic.

Two men, aged 33 and 42, appeared in court on Thursday charged with the same offences.

Tributes have been paid to Danielle on social media by pals shocked at her untimely death.
