Disgraced Qld fraudster MP to be sentenced

Disgraced former Queensland MP Scott Driscoll will soon learn whether he’ll be jailed over fraud offences, after pleading guilty three days before he was due to stand trial in the Brisbane District Court. The member for Redcliffe in the Newman government in November pleaded guilty to 15 charges, admitting to soliciting thousands of dollars in secret commissions and falsifying records during his term as an MP.
