Taxi perv moves in his schoolgirl fareFiend kicks out wife for teenagerA CONVICTED pervert shacked up with a teenager he met while running her to SCHOOL in his taxi.
John Gemmell, 43, split with wife Angela and moved Gemma Lawson into their marital home just weeks after her 16th birthday.
He had been on a contract to run her from her home in Dundonald, Ayrshire, to a support centre for kids out of mainstream education for three days a week since she was aged just 14.
Gemmell was sacked by taxi bosses when they found out Gemma had moved into his terraced house.
The shocking revelations emerged as he appeared at Ayr Sheriff Court last week after being found guilty of making sexual comments to two girls aged as young as eight.
A source said: "Everyone who knows him is sickened.
"Gemma moved in just after she turned 16.
"John insists that she was 16 before they got together but that is beside the point, he obviously got to know her through the taxi driving — it's not right. John and Angela have a six-year-old together and this has ripped the family apart."
A former colleague — who didn't want to be named — said: "Angela was going on about them having a relationship but nobody could believe he would be that stupid.
"Gemmell denied it but didn't do enough to satisfy the boss and was sacked.
"Obviously the boss was worried about losing the contract for the schools — we are working with kids and it is an absolute no-no.
"About three weeks later Gemma was found in his house."
The former workmate added: "This was only a few weeks after he stopped running her to school. It seems there was a lot of talk going between them on the internet — it's totally inappropriate."
Gemmell, accompanied by Gemma, was at court last week for sentencing but it was deferred until next year for reports.
After the hearing he declined to comment.
But Gemma said: "At the end of the day we are adults, it doesn't matter how we met.
"I was 16 — that makes me an adult."
Gemmell has been placed on the sex offenders register.
Gemma's mum Samantha refused to comment.
