  Can't believe it can you ?
  
  "She feels utter shame and remorse that she finds herself before the court," said Ms Luttman, defending". Yeah right !!
  
  Paying it back at £50 a month will take a while too. She should be on permanent community service.

  I bet her only 'shame and remorse' was getting caught she should have been locked up abusing her position like that.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Was the landlord aware where the cheques came from?

  well spotted alex and roger that passed me by on first read.
  
  maybe because i was too shocked that someone had so cold heartedly siphoned off money meant for the vulnerable.
  
  i'm sure such cases are rare but common enough to hit the headlines.
