Jason O’Neill; phony charity collector in London
Mary sends us a link from Get West London which tells the tale of Jason O’Neill who forged documentation and made a collection bucket for the UK charity for British soldiers “Help for Heroes” and took up collections outside Wembley Stadium, only the cash went in his own pocket;
Help For Heroes, which raises money to help British servicemen and women injured in conflict, later confirmed O’Neill was not a registered collector and had never sent the charity any money.
O’Neill, of Barbot Close, Edminton, north London, admitted fraud by false representation and possessing articles for use in fraud at Willesden Magistrates’ Court on March 20 and was sentenced to six months’ imprisonment, suspended for nine months.
Case officer PC Roisin Daly said: “This was a greedy and selfish act.
“O’Neill pre-planned to take advantage of generous members by making a bucket and a pass.
Mr. O’Neill ended up with a suspended jail sentence. So, I guess we’re not the only ones with grifting fakes.

Wanker!
Tosser!
Needs bollocks punched…
So what will the British Justice system give him, a slap on the wrist and tell him “No pudding for you tonight!”?
Six months sentence, suspended, free and clear in 9? Sounds like he got an extra helping of pudding. So nice to see the Home Office cracks down on this sort of thing just like DOJ! //sarc off
Needs his bangers mashed!
“O’Neill pre-planned to take advantage of generous members by making a bucket and a pass.”
What the? Is that code? Anyone have a translation? And what is pre-planning? Is that planning to plan? I’m afraid to ask what a generous member is. Damn Brits. No wonder they lost the colonies.
