Peter Murrell: The Man with the Money | The Big Cases
How Peter Murrell, the husband of Scotland’s longest-serving first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, embezzled £400,000 from the party he ran – using a paper trail of lies to cover up a spending spree on luxury goods, from a motor home to coffee machines and even toilet seats.
Peter Murrell was one of the most powerful figures in Scottish politics, operating away from the spotlight as chief executive of Scotland’s ruling party.
But behind the scenes, police pieced together a scandal – which ended in a dawn raid – involving hundreds of thousands of pounds in missing money.
He pleaded guilty, while his estranged wife, the party’s former leader, denied all knowledge.
From the corridors of Holyrood to the highest ranks of the SNP, loyalties fractured as Mr Murrell’s reputation collapsed.
With insider testimony, analysis and extraordinary revelations from the case, this is a story of power, money and betrayal at the heart of modern Scottish politics.

Rescue workers in Colombia are working against the clock to free survivors trapped in buildings and under rubble following Monday’s powerful earthquake.
More than 240 people have been confirmed dead – most in the cities of Cali and Pereira.
The magnitude 7.4 quake struck at 07:34 local time and was felt across an enormous area, stretching for hundreds of miles across western Colombia – with fresh aftershocks still being felt the following day.
A state of emergency has been declared by President Abelardo de la Espriella. Giving an update from Pereira, one of the worst hit cities, President Espriella said as well as those killed, thousands had been injured, and hundreds remain missing.
