Blackpool woman wore diazepam invisibility cloak to for shoplifting after scratchcard win
Two days after winning £25,000 on a scratchcard Nicola Lord, 38, stole perfume from Boots in Lytham.
Lord, who was arrested for shoplifting in 2014 and 2013, “took diazepam which she thought made her invisible when she went stealing”.
Wave965 reports:
She is barred from every Boots store in Britain but still went into the company’s branch in Lytham and stole £514 of perfume… Lord’s boyfriend David Buckley was removed from proceedings by District Judge Jeff Brailsford sitting at Blackpool Magistrates Court after shouting “ Hello Gorgeous” at Lord as she came into the dock from the custody cells.
Earlier Buckley had sung” We are in the money” outside court and said:”We don’t want to talk about it we don’t want the scrotes to know.”
Lord also admitted an earlier theft of clothing and shoes worth £377 from Marks and Spencer. She is currently on licence after serving eight months in jail.
The judge was told how Lord had a drugs issue. He gave her a 24 week suspended jail term and ordered her to pay £1330 in costs and fines within 35 days after being told by defence lawyer that Lord was due to receive a life changing amount of money within that time.
Lord should know that if you want to be invisible whilst stealing, shopping or breathing, you need to be only one thing: old.
