Derby Crown Court recently heard how Zoe Marsh, 47, of Nottingham Road, Alfreton, committed the offences between 2007 and 2016.

Prosecuting solicitor John Cooper told a previous Chesterfield magistrates’ court hearing that Zoe Marsh had been involved in fraudulent activity to the tune of thousands of pounds including allegedly stealing from and exploiting her 80-year-old mother Shirley Marsh, from Shirebrook.

The case was brought to light after a relative of Zoe Marsh’s mother became suspicious money was missing from the 80-year-old’s accounts and the police were alerted.

Zoe Marsh, formerly of Langwith, Shirebrook and Creswell, pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud by dishonestly making a false representation to make a gain for herself and she also pleaded guilty to two counts of theft.

She was sentenced to 15 months of custody on August 7.
