Jill, aged 54 worked as a cashier and bosses became suspicious when she was caught with wads of cash in her handbag, and her till didn’t add up.
She was finally caught on CCTV not issuing a ticket to every customer and pocketing their entrance fee instead. Appearing in Derby Crown Court, Marshall pleaded guilty to fraud by false representation and was sentenced to 18 months in prison, along with being given 6 months to repay the money.
Sentencing her, Judge David Pugsley said: ‘You have lived a useful, caring, kindly life but you stole in a position of trust and that sort of behaviour will not be tolerated.’
The court heard how an 18 month-long investigation was launched by police and staff at the attraction in Matlock bath, Derbyshire, who painstakingly went through nine years of receipts.
