GB News: HMRC worker who STOLE £200k of taxpayers' cash to pay mortgage could avoid jail by selling house
HMRC worker who STOLE £200k of taxpayers' cash to pay mortgage could avoid jail by selling house
Joanne Connell, a former HMRC worker, embezzled nearly £200,000 from taxpayers by creating fake credit notes and diverting funds to her bank account. She has pleaded guilty and may avoid prison if she sells her house to repay a significant portion of the stolen money.

Connell's fraudulent activities occurred over a year, even while she was working from home and off sick. The court has continued the case to explore her restitution options, with prosecutors seeking to recover the stolen funds.
