On the phone in Stephen asks - has your confidence in police investigations been knocked? Also on the show, proposals, rude cartoons and veganism.

PHONE-IN
Two former sex workers who were picked up by Iain Packer say women needlessly suffered attacks after police failed to act on warnings that he was dangerous. Iain Packer, 51, was found guilty of killing Emma Caldwell in Limefield Woods, Biggar, in April 2005. He was also convicted of 11 rapes and multiple sexual assaults against 21 other women over a 26-year period.
Police Scotland has apologised and said victims did not get the justice they deserved from the first investigation.
A statement said "Emma Caldwell, her family and many other victims, were let down by policing in 2005. For that we are sorry," 

As Police Scotland apologise for the original inquiry Stephen asks - does this knock your confidence in police investigations?
