A financial adviser embezzled £212,000 after being trusted with the fortune of a widow as she battled dementia, a court heard.
Gordon Couch, 56, was given power of attorney over the affairs of frail Marjorie Stewart, who went into an Edinburgh nursing home.
He was later made executor of her estate after Marjorie died aged 91, leaving a will instructing cash be paid to relatives and charities.
