A British socialite stole nearly $300,000 from her dementia-suffering grandmother to fund her lavish lifestyle, including designer clothes and stays in Beverly Hills hotels, according to local reports.
Emily Rosina Evans-Schreiber, 38, had only about $50 in her bank account when she was given control of her 94-year-old grandmother Rosina Evans’ finances in April 2018, a Northampton crown court heard Friday, according to the BBC.
The former model’s mother had become worried about her daughter’s “high life” in London, and bought her a house in Naseby, tasking her with taking care of her grandma, prosecutors said.
Over the next eight months, Evans-Schreiber — who once worked as a fashion consultant for model Cara Delevingne — blew the cash on jet-setting, high-end hotels and cosmetic treatments, prosecutors said.
Eventually, her mom, Clare Evans-Schreiber, became suspicious about how her jobless daughter was managing to afford her luxe lifestyle — and called the bank and the police.
Bank statements for Rosina’s account showed the close to $300,000 in transfers to Evans-Schreiber, labeled as “bills,” “care” and “savings.”
When police searched her house in May 2019 they found “luxury products,” including brand-name clothing, shoes, handbags and sunglasses.

In pleading for leniency, the defense argued Evans-Schreiber had left behind enough cash to cover her grandma’s medical bills — and sent her flowers and chocolates.
On the downside, this woman has a young child.
“I predict male Freepers will pronounce her “not guilty.’”
“A former model and fashion designer has been given a suspended sentence for stealing £230,251 from her grandmother who had dementia.”
Oh hell no...throw her fashion designer butt AND THE JUDGE that gave her the suspended sentence INTO THE SAME CELL until grandmum has been repaid the stolen funds.
This one would be hot-crazy category.
This happens too often. Setup at least 2 people not related to each other to handle finances in case like this.
My middle sister stole $108,000 from our father. I read of a friend from high school whose lawyer dad stole from a women he was in charge of her finances. My cousins husband said his dads 2 brothers divided up their parents money between them after they passed leaving him out as he never knew anything until too late.
Is her name, MEghan?
$300G? Gazillion?
She has too many names. Probably stole some of them too.

This could have been prevented if they had a law making everyone 70 and over wards of the state. And place all physical and financial control in the hands of a government caseworker.
This could happen here someday... Banks are already looking sideways at everyone helping their elders with teller transactions.
And that is a fact. But when the government does it they are just doing their job...
Age 38? That’s mid-cougar range. And her illicit money pot is now emptied. Quo vadis?
In ten years she’ll be eating ramen noodles & drinking box wine & remembering the good times when she was blowing grandma’s cash.
Karma doesn’t lie and is not mocked.
Selfish woman to the point of being evil. Toxic at the very least.
Oh man...I hate that for you...your own sister doing that.
I thought it was satire.
Stealing from grandma and spending lavishly on an entitled princess lifestyle. She’s trash that can’t be trusted to do what’s right and she’s better off living paycheck to paycheck when she finally gets a real job. Any man hitching her to his wagon will be a dum dum.
Nice sports car in the pic at the link. She could pass for a young Morgan Fairchild or her granddaughter..
