Scots driver's detached trailer turned into 'unguided missile' before woman died
A trailer with faulty brakes turned into “an unguided missile” when it detached from the Land Rover towing it, a judge said today. Lord Mulholland told driver Mark McVay he was criminally responsible for causing the death of 38-year-old Michelle Russell because he had failed to make sure the trailer was hitched securely to his vehicle before the accident near Saline in Fife August 30 2018.
