Man probed over disappearance of Scots mum given 12-year jail sentence for dealing cocaine

A crook probed over the disappearance of missing Scots mum Lisa Brown has been jailed for 12 years for drug dealing.

Simon Corner, 39, admitted supplying cocaine and was caged, along with five other Merseyside gang members, at Liverpool Crown Court yesterday.

Lisa – who was from Alexandria, Dunbartonshire, but had lived abroad since she was 18 – went missing from her home near Gibraltar, Spain, in November 2015. She was 32.

She had failed to collect her son Marco from school and there has been no trace of her since.

Police said a “violent episode” had taken place at the home she shared with Liverpudlian Corner and he was at the centre of a long-running murder probe. But last October, it emerged the Spanish judge who investigated Corner had closed his probe.

Lisa’s family remain determined to get answers.

Speaking last March following the death of Lisa’s mum Catherine Brown, 74, her brother Craig said: “The family is still committed, even more so now, to getting justice for Lisa.”
