A callous East Lothian carer has been snared stealing money from the home of a terminally ill man he was looking after.
Anthony McKnight was caught after the family of 87-year-old Kenneth Samuel started to notice cash going missing from the pensioner's wallet at his home in Haddington. For months, his family put the missing money down to Kenneth misplacing it, giving it to his grandkids or spending it on a jaunt to the bookies.
But McKnight was rumbled when Kenneth's three eagle-eyed daughters used an old camera to keep an eye on him. And they were horrified when checking the footage to find it showing McKnight opening a drawer next to Kenneth, lifting cash out and slipping it into his uniform.
