âIs there anything else I need to know?â the investment chief asked with cold fury. Before him stood his well-groomed office administrator, Melissa Caddick (then known by her maiden name of Grimley), who had just been confronted with the evidence of her crimes: four cheques on which sheâd forged his signature. Caddick shook her head.
It was 1998, and Caddick had landed a job running the Sydney office of a recently opened boutique investment house via a friend sheâd worked with at the NRMA. Her boss recalls his assistant as being organised, efficient and reliable. Although there were only the two of them in the office, she dressed immaculately. âHer manicured presentation seemed suited to a job she aspired to, rather than the job she had,â says the former boss.
