Jessica Harper convicted for doing her job!!

[Boris Bajic]

Call me thick, but as I understand it this woman was the Head of Fraud for a part of Lloyds Bank.

It appears she was convicted of dishonestly making over £2 million by submitting false invoices.

Surely that's what a Head of Fraud is meant to do!

Am I missing a fairly basic point here?

I'd hate to think that you've broken your perfect record.

Indeed you are! The problem is that the Head of Fraud should not keep the ill-gotten gains for herself, she is supposed to hand the loot over to her employers so they can pay bonuses. Then she'd be promoted rather than convicted.

Gamekeeper turned Poacher. Repatriate her to Nigeria where she stands a good chance of a place on the cabinet.

Hate to think.... surely not.

She can send out loads of "I have a million Dollars, and I need a bank account" type emails to the rest of the world then.

I read the title and thought "What! Arrested for winning the heptathlon!"

That's easy for you to spell.

You've not heard about the Vice President yet, then ?
