A woman who stole bank cards from colleagues at a Rutland care home and used them to go on a spending spree has been jailed.
Toni Ann Templeton, (33), from Willenhall, near Coventry, stole from three colleagues at the home in December last year.
She was sentenced at Leicester Crown Court after pleading guilty to one offence of conspiracy to steal and one offence of conspiracy to commit fraud.
Three members of staff at the home alerted police after the cards were stolen from their purses and bags and were subsequently used for fraudulent transactions.
Templeton was identified by Leicestershire Police. The force released details of the case, which was heard on Tuesday, July 8, today.
Pc Paul Le Pla, who investigated Templeton, said: "I am delighted with this result and the prison sentence she has received.
"I am also very grateful to West Midlands Police who assisted us in this investigation."
