A carer used a disabled woman's Amazon account to order sex toys and beauty products for herself.
Lassie Dankeh also used Julie Grieveson’s online account to buy clothes over a period of five months between March 25 and August 10 last year. Between June 6 and July 6, the 24-year-old also transferred money from Ms Grieveson’s bank account to her own using Paypal service, Xoom.
Ms Grieveson, 43, who was diagnosed with degenerative multiple sclerosis in 2005 and is in an electric wheelchair, is “totally reliant on carers for her daily care”, a court heard. Liverpool Crown Court heard that Dankeh began caring for Ms Grieveson in July, 2020, and began regular visits, including throughout lockdown, during which time a friendship developed.
