An American woman who a judge termed an “incorrigible fraudster”, betraying the trust of clients she went on to befriend and swindling more than £100,000, has been jailed in Northern Ireland.
Marianne Smyth, 56, with an address given as Spa Road in Ballynahinch, Co Down was sentenced to four years, reduced to three years and four months in recognition of time she spent in US custody.
