A barrister and part-time judge has been found guilty of lying to police in connection with the Chris Huhne speeding points scandal, Skynews reports.
Constance Briscoe was accused of trying to pervert the course of justice during the case involving the disgraced cabinet minister’s passing of speeding points to his then-wife Vicky Pryce a decade ago.
Briscoe, 56, who has been suspended since her arrest in October 2012 and denied three counts of intending to pervert the course of public justice, did not react as the jury at the Old Bailey found her guilty after deliberations lasting around five hours.
