A cruel woman with previous convictions for theft watched the funeral of her neighbour pass by her house before she raided the dead man's home the following day.
In a "despicable" act Leanne Hunter, who was high on drugs, stole treasured and sentimental items from 65-year-old David Butler, who lived next door just 24 hours after he was laid to rest.
The objects Hunter pinched were of no use to her at all, however, she also found £200 cash in a wallet.
