Ugly Divorce Exposes Drug Use Exploitation of Employees





[From article]
‘This evidence is of substantial importance as it explains why Miss Lawson had consented or appeared to consent to their expenditure – as the defendants were intimately connected to her private life and were aware of the drugs use, which she wanted to keep from her then husband Charles Saatchi.’
Ten days ago, the Crown described the Grillos’ drug claims as ‘scurrilous’. Judge Johnson not only banned the allegations from being raised in court, but imposed a reporting restriction.
On Monday, however, it emerged that Mr Saatchi had told his ex-wife he believed the cocaine claims against her and the judge yesterday ruled the sensational ‘bad character’ allegations were admissable.
