A woman who was supposed to care for her dementia-suffering grandad stole £34,000 from him to fund an 'almighty bender'.
Nicole Taylor dwindled Norman Glover's savings to fund a cocaine habit and to pay for tattoos, takeaways, holidays and a car, LancsLive reports. The 25-year-old, from Chorley, been given permission to access his bank account following his dementia diagnosis, but only for the purpose of paying for maintenance for his house.
The pensioner, whose wife died weeks into the 14 month theft campaign, was left devastated by the deception from someone he 'treated as his own'. Preston Crown Court heard how he and his wife Julie had helped care for and support Taylor when her own mother was unable to.
