Man jailed after stealing from Lockerbie bombing memorial

Lori Carnochan, the chairperson of Tundergarth Kirks Trust, gave evidence as a witness in the trial and says Little’s jail term was “satisfying, and a pleasant surprise”.

She said: “In this day and age its quite easy for an awful lot of criminals to be given just a slap on the wrist.

“To come to court and see that Graeme Little is going to spend time behind bars. For us as a trust it’s a bit of satisfaction that he’s being made an example of.

“It is a despicable crime. The money that’s raised in the memorial room goes towards remembering and paying tribute to those 270 victims who were killed in the Lockerbie bombing.

“It’s terrible to think that anybody would go in there and steal money from something that’s being put towards such a wonderful cause.”
