Scots lawyer who showed up to court in Celtic top was caught with dope after police search

An absolute throbber. Scottish justice once again working for them.

A lawyer who commits crimes should not be getting the easy option regarding upholding the justice system.

Confirmation of what we’ve all known for a long time.

The green and grey strips are clearly the most versatile piece of clothing you can buy.

Wear it continuously for weeks on end without the need to wash it.

Wear it to the game, around the house, to the beach, to the park, in the pub, travelling on holiday, even in the pool, great attire for nightclubs, parties and clearly acceptable for wearing to work, including the Scottish Parliament and even representing clients in court. I bet you can even get buried in it.

They really are a class apart. A GP in my Health Centre (not my doctor), changes in to his Sellic tap at the end of the day before heading home.

A GP at our practice used to sit with his green and grey scarf on whilst seeing patients. Needless to say after I saw him once I made sure I never saw him again. Takes a special kind of prick to think that wearing stuff like that is appropriate when dealing with the public. Needless to say the workshy mentally challengeds always made sure they asked for him when looking for a sick note

"In February, he represented a thug who was jailed for punching three police horses before a Scottish Cup quarter-final match.

Celtic fan Kevin McGuire was jailed for 10 months at Glasgow Sheriff Court after he attacked the animals and officers before his team played Airdrie in January 2019."

So he is their go-to guy for court appearances? Let's hope the Law Society strike him off.

A lawyer has admitted being in possession of cannabis in court.

Michael McKeown was caught with the drug when he was searched by police.

The 51-year-old was preparing to represent a client when court staff alerted officers.

It is understood they doubted McKeown’s claims he was a solicitor when he arrived at Glasgow Sheriff Court wearing a Celtic training top.

Police stopped and searched him and found a small quantity of cannabis


McKeown, a partner at law firm Callaghan McKeown & Co, admitted an offence under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971.


He was handed a fiscal fine of £325 after being detained on April 6.

The direct measure is an alternative to prosecution. It means the offender is spared a court appearance and escapes a full criminal record.

Emergency legislation passed by Holyrood allowed courts to increase the maximum fiscal fine from £300 to £500 to help prevent a backlog of cases during the Covid-19 outbreak.

A source close to McKeown said he had been struggling to cope with lockdown conditions at the time of the offence.

He now faces being censured by legal watchdogs over the incident, which has been described as a “personal disaster”.


Solicitors can face serious sanctions when their behaviour falls short of standards.

The Law Society of Scotland can investigate the incident or refer it to the Scottish Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal. They can remove a solicitor’s licence to practise and impose a fine.

McKeown, who lives in Glasgow’s west end, had been digging in his mum’s garden when he was called to attend court.

A colleague had to take his place after he was stopped by police.

A source said: “Michael is hugely embarrassed by this.

“He knows how bad it looks and just wanted to get the whole thing over with as quickly as possible. It was a stupid mistake. He couldn’t have been thinking straight.”


McKeown is an experienced solicitor who appears in criminal trials across central Scotland.

In February, he represented a thug who was jailed for punching three police horses before a Scottish Cup quarter-final match.

Celtic fan Kevin McGuire was jailed for 10 months at Glasgow Sheriff Court after he attacked the animals
and officers before his team played Airdrie in January 2019.

One of McKeown’s criminal trials at Paisley Sheriff Court had to be deserted last December after a juror logged on to Facebook and found out information about the accused during the trial


In 2006, McKeown was given a police warning over his alcohol-fuelled antics on a flight home from Egypt.

He clashed with cabin crew after being told off for making too much noise.

Police intervened when the plane landed at Glasgow Airport.

Just how often do these imbeciles have to demonstrate to the normal people of the world that they are nothing but a shower of classless tramps?
A lawyer turning up at court in fitba gear, and with drugs?
Dearie me!
Add this sorry episode to the daft bints who felt it necessary to turn up at Holyrood and Westminster in their celtc taps to make an exhibition of themselves in the past.
What is fucking wrong with these people? :D
 
The fud should have been charged with contempt of court. In his 50's ffs, and still a bitter twisted right in your face mentally challenged.
 
Utter scum from cradle to grave, and thats the so called educated ones. No dignity, no class, no respect for other people. A stain on society and I blame their church and education system
 
That guy is an example of the Establishment in this country these days.
They’ve steadily and sleekitly taken over previously respected professions to fill them with their own kind.
 
Can you imagine you mistakenly employed this idiot to represent you, what sort of service would you get were he to find out your allegiances?
 
Digging in his mum's garden,Burying what?,one may ask. No criminal record for committing a crime.celtic fan. Criminal record for singing a song,Rangers fan. This is scotshit justice for you.
 
This is 'bog standard' (if you'll pardon the pun) behaviour for the average mentally challenged.

No social awareness or semblance of professionalism added to an attitude of entitlement.

No wonder this country is going down the shitter.
 
Hope he gets the book thrown at him, he is a professional and has to act in a manor becoming to his profession.
The fact that he got a direct fine is just a slap on the wrist for the boys.
How difficult would it have been for him to get a shirt. Was he trying to be smart.
But what a brass neck - wearing a Celtic top!!! - that's enough to get de wigged :D :D :D :D
