A man accused of embezzling his girlfriend's life savings while she was in hospital, sent £115,000 to another woman - then married her, a court was told. William Dunn took cash from the accounts of Lynda Grant, a cancer nurse, who had to retire due to medical complications.
His Paisley Sheriff Court trial heard yesterday that he sent £115,000 from Lynda’s bank to Karen Anne Dolan. Lynda worked at the NHS’ Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre, where she helped patients battling the disease.
And the court heard Dunn also transferred £5,971.46 from her National Health Service pension to his own account. Just months after the payments were made, Dunn and Dolan tied the knot.
