Constance
Briscoe is facing a further criminal investigation into allegations she
fraudulently obtained documents used to defend libel claims brought against her
by her own mother.
Carmen
Briscoe-Mitchell, who sat in the court throughout Briscoe's recent trial,
unsuccessfully attempted to sue her daughter in 2008 over claims made against
her in her daughter Briscoe's 2006 memoir, Ugly.
A
BBC investigation has learned Scotland Yard is now investigating claims that
Briscoe may have unlawfully obtained medical documents to support her defence
case.
A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman
said: "We were contacted in September last year regarding an allegation of
fraud, which relates to documents that were allegedly fraudulently obtained
from Southwark Council. The matter is being investigated by Lewisham CID."
Mrs Briscoe-Mitchell, a mother of 11,
ultimately lost her libel case against her daughter over the book which accused
her of sustained childhood cruelty and neglect.
