The investigation began after it emerged that Mr MacShane had claimed nearly £20,000 a year in expenses for an office based in the garage of his South Yorkshire home.
The former Minister claimed £125,000 in seven years to cover the costs of running his official constituency base from the garage of his semi-detached home in Rotherham.

The details come out in court ...

Mr Justice Saunders told the jury that they were to hear “an unusual form of trial” in which they would not be asked to decide whether or not Mrs Moran was guilty, but only whether “the prosecution has proved that she did the acts alleged”.
He added: “She is not fit mentally to defend herself against the charges that she faces. It would therefore be unfair for her to be found guilty.”
He said that if the jury decided the prosecution case was proven: “That will not result in punishment as such, but will ensure that the court makes sure Mrs Moran gets appropriate treatment.”
WTF? eeek:
At what point did she become mentally unfit? When she was found out? ::)
