Nurse jailed for
JoAnn Marie Brophy,[url=http://www.sport.fr/smartphones/moncler.asp]doudoune moncler[/url], 48, pleaded guilty to 47 counts of stealing as a servant.
The charges were from offences ranging from June 2002 to June 2010, during which Brophy stole a total of $216,000.
In sentencing at the District Court today, Judge Allan Fenbury said Brophy had not been caught for eight years because she was a close friend of one of the victims.
He said Brophy tried to conceal the theft by making or effecting accounting entries.
was the fact that you were so deeply trusted by your employer that you were able to steal from them undetected for so long, he said.
short, you were relied upon and trusted with the bookkeeping. And because of that, you were well able to conceal your activities.
A courtordered psychological report said Brophy deep sense of unlikable and unliked may have driven her compulsion to spend money on herself as a form of compensation.
The report also said Brophy had difficulty managing money, and once she started borrowing from her employer, she became reckless and started going on extravagant spending sprees using her employer money.
Judge Fenbury said he accepted Brophy was remorseful and had been living frugally while working as a nurse in the Kimberley to try to repay some of the money she stole.
counsel submits that your mental health at the time and now is such that a sentence of imprisonment to be served immediately, although perhaps otherwise deserved, should not be imposed and that it should be a suspended sentence, he said in sentencing.
am unpersuaded that at the time of the offending, that is, the period of eight years, your mental condition played a significant causative role in your offending behaviour other than perhaps the spending. Fenbury said a term of immediate imprisonment was unavoidable and sentenced Brophy to two years in jail.
