In this episode, a trusted NHS veteran steals equipment worth over £15,000 and then sells it online. A callous fraudster launches a malicious campaign of hoax 999 calls – costing the cash-strapped police force thousands of pounds and putting people’s lives at risk. And a serial liar makes bogus benefits claims for 19 imaginary children… ten of whom he says are blind!
