William Lindsay was just 16 when he died.
The deaths of two young people at a young offenders' prison are to be investigated at a Fatal Accident Inquiry .
In a statement issued today, the KC said: "I acknowledge the deep anguish that the deaths of Katie and William have brought to their families. I met with Katie’s mother and father and William’s mother and brother and having listened to them talk about their experiences I fully appreciate that the wait for these proceedings has been too long and distressing for them.
Unlike criminal proceedings, FAIs are used to establish facts and not apportion blame, however, recommendations can be made by the presiding sheriff to try and minimise the risk of deaths occurring in similar circumstances. Procurator Fiscal Andy Shanks added: "The Procurator Fiscal Service has thoroughly investigated the circumstances surrounding the deaths of Katie Allan and William Lindsay.
