A mum emptied out a coffee shop's till moments before emailing her boss to say she was resigning.
Nicole Meyler, 40, worked as a manager at Bean Coffee's Mather Avenue branch, based inside a police training academy, with her role including banking the takings weekly. She was so trusted that when the company’s operational director realised the takings had not been banked he thought it must be an admin error.
Yesterday, a court heard how after getting away with it once Nicole Meyler, of Gonville Road, Bootle, then continued repeating her dishonest behaviour to finance her cocaine habit for the next 72 weeks before an audit caught her out. She pleaded guilty to stealing £16,876 between May 2021 and November last year.
