Brighton Woman steals £35,000 in Housing and other benefits.

  16th November 2008

A Brighton Mother used her falsely claimed state handouts to send her daughter to top private school.

£35,000 was claimed falsely by way of housing benefits, council tax and income support.

Pretending that she was unemployed - and so able to claim various benefits - she actually had a range of jobs. Sometimes three jobs at the same time as ripping off the council and taxpayer. Ironically, she was being paid by the taxpayer for one of her jobs - as a hospital nursing assistant.

The woman pleaded guilty of fifteen charges of fraudulently claiming benefits - mainly from City of Hove and Brighton Council.

Two different national Insurance numbers were the giveaway that started the investigation.

Sentence on December 17th 2008 - after 'reports' are available.
