Ms Bessant was the sole tenant of 5 Fairinsfell, Broxburn, West Lothian under a secure tenancy held from West Lothian Council. While originally unsuspected of the murder Mr McCreight was accepted as tenant of the property in succession to Ms Bessant, and two months after his conviction in June 2002 McCreight applied to exercise his right to buy. West Lothian Council originally accepted the application but after the first application lapsed, and the council became aware of McCreight's role in the death of the previous tenant, the Council rejected a subsequent application. McCreight applied to the Lands Tribunal in response to this rejection, and - after losing his case there - subsequently appealed to the Inner House in McCreight v West Lothian Council [2009] CSIH 04.
