A notorious fraudster took his own life after being unable to escape his problems with money, an inquest ruled.
Stephen Evans was found dead by police at his home in Kendal on September 27 after concerns were raised that he'd missed a shift at the outdoor adventure centre where he worked. An inquest held into his death on Tuesday (February 21) concluded that Mr Evans took his own life.
The 38-year-old earned the nickname the "Wolf of Old Hall Street" after he was jailed for five years following a £4.4m Ponzi scam in 2014, which he ran from an office on Old Hall Street in Liverpool city centre, Lancs Live reports.
