During the time in question, she ran a business that offered concierge services, organised holidays and trips overseas.
The court accepted her plea of having problems with her business and not that she goes around dopping people. She sobbed in the dock as the judge told her.
''You appear to be someone who on the face of it is terrified of the court's powers, and accepting that what you have done was appalling.''
''You have pleaded guilty to seven matters of fraud involving professional, hard working people, wanting to spend money on holidays and treats.''
''Some of these people may have been wealthy, but that doesn't make any difference. It's their money,'' the judge added.
After considering everything, the Judge gave her a two - year suspended prison sentence. Read also, melvinsports.blogspot.com
She was ordered to pay back the money to the people. As she was leaving the court the perpetrator, Claire Duke, said that she was sorry for the upset and stress her action caused the families involved.
