Paramedic steals money from 94-year-old woman moments after she dies

Описание: A paramedic who was caught on CCTV pocketing money from a 94-year-old's home moments after she collapsed and died has been spared jail.

Mark Titley was caught stealing £60 from the patient's home in Shrewsbury in 2022. But when he realised he'd been filmed, he returned the cash.

The paramedic initially denied the allegation once police had been alerted, telling officers that he intended to "secure" the cash and take it to family members.

Titley later admitted to the theft. He was given an 18-week prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, and was ordered to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work. He was also told to pay £530 in costs as well as a £187 victim surcharge.
