Drunk driver who killed Scots vet given thousands in legal aid for bid to serve sentence in France
03.07.2022 - 07:19 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A drunk driver who killed an island vet has been given thousands of pounds in legal aid to launch a bid to serve his prison sentence in France. Thomas Wainwright, 32, was jailed for 12 years after Theresa Wade, 29, died when the Maserati he was driving ploughed into her van on Mull in October 2015.
He has been granted £5,131 in legal aid as he seeks permission to serve his sentence in his home country and has made a second appeal to be moved. Theresa’s partner Charles Pease, 66, said Wainwright should not have been allowed to claim legal aid to get the transfer.
He said: “I was very disappointed to learn that Wainwright has undertaken an appeal to be moved to France when he has already been turned down before. I don’t agree with public money being spent this way. It’s a waste of time and money.
“He was convicted of a crime in Scotland, so Scotland is where he should serve that time. He probably wants to go back to be nearer his family but the loss of family for him isn’t a permanent one.
“He will one day be able to see his family again. Theresa’s family are not afforded the same luxury. We have to live with the loss of her every day. Why can’t he just serve his time, then go home? He has to pay that price, no matter how uncomfortable it is for him.
“He has taken a woman’s life and his incarceration in Scotland is the very least of his obligations to Theresa’s memory. It won’t bring her back but I want him to stay in Scotland. It’s the very least he can do.”
Wainwright, whose family are of Scottish origin, was driving on the wrong side of the road when he crashed into Theresa’s vehicle on the A849 near Craignure. At the point of impact, he was travelling at 69mph.
During his trial, the court heard he had been drinking cider
