A crooked Help for Heroes Fife fundraiser who took more than £160,000 from his mother-in-law’s bank account to fund his gambling addiction has been jailed.
Serial fraudster Timothy Grantham, 68, spent almost £90,000 of Elizabeth McIntosh’s money at the Grosvenor Casino in Dundee.
His offences came to light after Mrs McIntosh’s care home fees went into arrears.
Grantham, who was a volunteer co-ordinator of the Fife branch of Help for Heroes, was locked up on Wednesday after previously pleading guilty at Dundee Sheriff Court.
