David Jenkins has been jailed

David Jenkins has been jailed after stealing at least £149,000 from the Newark care home resident, in her 90s, from March 2021 to May 2023.

Jenkins had been granted power of attorney over the vulnerable woman's money, meaning he could make financial decisions on her behalf. However, when she moved into a care home it became apparent the 57-year-old was abusing his position of trust.
