Stole £64k from care home residents
A 35 year-old woman has admitted stealing more than £64,000 from the residents of a care home.
Juanita Ferguson, of Lower Nassau Street, admitted six charges of theft at Meadowbank Care Home between May 12, 2005 and February 6, 2006.
A previous court hearing was told that in total the amount of cash stolen from the residents was 'in excess of 64,000'.
On Friday, Derry Crown Court Judge Desmond Marrinan told Ferguson the theft of cash from the residents of a care home was a very serious matter.
It was revealed that a confiscation order for the money has also been requested and a hearing will take place next month.
The judge adjourned sentencing until the same date and ordered the compilation of a probation pre-sentence report.
Ferguson was released on continuing bail to appear in court again on April 23.
