LEWIS KIDD FROM GLENROTHES AND KIRKCALDY CONVICTED OF DOMESTIC ABUSE

In a recent court ruling at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court, Lewis Kidd, a resident of Glenrothes, was found guilty of committing acts of domestic abuse against his former partner. The case drew significant attention due to the serious nature of the allegations and the legal proceedings that followed.

Following the conviction, the court imposed a comprehensive set of penalties aimed at addressing Kidd's conduct and preventing further incidents. On January 21, 2025, Kidd was sentenced to a community payback order, which requires him to perform unpaid work as part of his rehabilitation process. Additionally, he was placed under an 18-month supervision order, ensuring ongoing monitoring and support from social services.

Furthermore, Kidd received a six-month restriction of liberty order, limiting his movements and freedoms to prevent any potential harassment or further abuse. To reinforce the seriousness of the court's decision, a 24-month non-harassment order was also issued, explicitly prohibiting Kidd from contacting or approaching his ex-partner. These measures collectively aim to protect the victim and promote accountability for Kidd's actions.

The case underscores the ongoing efforts of the judicial system in Kirkcaldy and the surrounding areas to combat domestic violence and uphold the safety of individuals within the community. The court's ruling reflects a firm stance against such offenses and highlights the importance of legal consequences in addressing domestic abuse cases.
