A care manager took money meant to be used towards a trip to a theme park for vulnerable residents and spent it on himself.
Stephen Gains was in charge of paying bills for residents in a care complex - but stole that money and used it for his own gain. Liverpool Magistrates’ Court heard this morning that the 43 year old took money meant for bills and spent it on a laptop and that money intended for a trip to Alton Towers also disappeared into his pocket.
He sobbed in court this morning as he admitted being “disgusted at himself” for taking money residents’ families had trusted him to use for the care of their loved ones.
