'taking advantage of characters from 14 across in stockyards synonymous with dexter's' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'family' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'family' could be 'kin' ('kin' can be a synonym of 'family') and 'kin' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
