Evil Carer video stealing from MS Patient
 

THIS is the shocking moment a carer was caught red-handed she brazenly stole from a bedridden MS patient.

Evil Claire Jones, 42, was nabbed when Anita Dubique-Ashton's family set up a hidden camera to catch her in the act - and even left money out as bait.

She dodged jail after pleading guilty to three counts of theft at Warrington Magistrates' Court.

Anita's husband Steve Ashton called the police after his hidden cameras showed her pilfering cash and groceries.

Speaking after Claire was slapped with a six-month suspended sentence, he blasted: "It was predatory behaviour where the personal assistant was checking coat pockets and bags.

"We were initially concerned that one of our children had been stealing from us which hurt.

"But on further review, I determined that for some of the thefts only Claire had the opportunity.

"I set my laptop to record the area where my work bag was situated.

"I had purposely put two-pound coins in a plastic money bag and a five-pound note into the pocket of my work bag.

"I reviewed the laptop's recording later that day - Claire was seen searching through all the pockets of my work bag.

'She would have had no reason to go into my bag, she initially walked away without taking anything to later return and take the bag with the two pounds.

"The camera showed that this wasn't theft when an opportunity arose.".

Hannah Houghton, defending, told the court Jones was "disgusted in herself".

She said: "It was a reckless and silly decision and the gain to herself was minimal. She took £7 in cash and the goods totalled £13."
