The Central Scotland Police investigation against Quick was launched after David Young, a former charity worker, was found dead in a hotel room in Cebu City in the Philippines in 2002.
His devastated parents, John and Noreen, became aware of the allegations against Quick only after they discovered their son had discussed them with a psychiatrist.
Yesterday, John Young, a GP in Alva, Clackmannanshire, and his wife, attended court to witness Quick being jailed, but declined to comment.
Les Brown, a former detective with Strathclyde Police who traced more than 500 former Dollar Academy pupils taught by Quick, said: “The family considers this a disappointing sentence.”
