Campbell given community service

by isleofman.com 12th June 2008
A 53 year old man has been given 240 hours community service by the courts after admitting stealing ?1,897 from Bride Post Office, where he was in charge.

Michael Edward Campbell of Glen Chass, Port St Mary, appeared before the High Bailiff.

His advocate said the defendant found himself in serious financial difficulties and took the money, but after selling his car re-paid it all in five days.

However, between selling the car and receiving the cash to repay the money the Post Office carried out an audit.

Mr Moyle said it was a serious breach of trust, but he was taking all mitigating factors into account.

He said the theft was not consistent, it was a one-off over a short period of time, and the money was repaid.

He accepted the problems that Campbell had in his personal life.
