A dubious lesbian woman who cheated the state has been caught after posting her lesbian wedding photos on Facebook.
Kerry Hope was found guilty of duping the state
A mum who scrounged thousands in handouts by claiming she was a
single parent was unmasked as a benefits cheat after pictures of her
lesbian wedding were posted on Facebook, The Sun UK reports.
It was gathered that the 40-year-old woman identified as Kerry Hope
had received income support and housing benefit while telling the
authorities she was living alone and had no other income.
However, her shenanigans came to light after the Department of Work
and Pensions (DWP) found out that Hope had tied the knot with her
28-year-old lover Leanne Lambert, and was living with her.
Photos later emerged on social media of the happy couple getting
hitched at Blackpool’s Wedding Chapel before posing outside the seaside
resort’s iconic tower.
After the revelation, investigators swung into action following a
tip off and found the damning images of the August 2015 ceremony during
their inquiries.
They even spotted some snaps being re-posted as part of their 1st year “paper” wedding anniversary.
At Burnley magistrates court, Hope who is now Kerry Hope-Lambert,
sobbed as she pleaded guilty to dishonestly failing to notify the
Department for Work and Pensions of a change in circumstances between
June 17, 2014 and September 17, 2015.
Additionally she copped to dishonestly failing to notify Pendle
Borough Council of a change in circumstances between June 23, 2014 and
September 13, 2015.
Prosecutor Philippa White told the hearing the total amount overpaid to Hope- Lambert was £8,065.01.
The scrounger claimed income support from 2007 and it was paid to
her on the basis she was a lone parent living with four kids in Nelson
with no other form of income.
Mrs White said: “Payments were made directly into her Post
Office account and were paid on the basis she was to report any changes
in her circumstances to the Department for Work and Pensions and Pendle
Borough Council.
“Both paid these benefits on the basis of that proviso, that a change in her circumstances should be notified.
“It became apparent she failed to declare she was maintaining a common household with her partner Leanne Hope- Lambert.
“Leanne Hope- Lambert was in a position to support the family financially. ”
She was given a two month curfew, between 7pm and 7am, seven days a
week. The bench made no order for costs because of her means but she
must pay an £85 victim surcharge out of her benefits.
