Image caption

Rugby star Gareth Cooper's ex-wife has been ordered to pay back just £1 after swindling him out of £1m. But Leyshon, 41, fraudulently obtained mortgages and loans in her husband's name while telling Mr Cooper the struggling business was"thriving". On Friday, a Proceeds of Crime Act hearing at Cardiff Crown Court was told Leyshon, from Bridgend, had benefitted to the tune of £371,271 and Thomas, from Cowbridge, £161,081.Image copyrightDebra Leyshon was ordered to pay back just £1 after a Proceeds of Crime Act hearing

Women want equality in everything in life and lost the plot over equal pay but when it comes to prison sentences it seems to be a diferent story

That’ll teach her.... British justice at its best. 🙄

Utter Bllocks! Got away with that!

If this was the other way round he would be crucified by the justice system.

So let me get this straight. She robs him of over £1M causing him to be bankrupt and after a police investigation and a court case she gets a 2-year suspended sentence (doesn't go to jail) and has to pay £1 (ONE POUND!!) to him... British justice fails AGAIN...

Her greed has left her with nothing, We’re if she had run the business’s to make the money she would have had financial support for the rest of her life, All she wanted was the money to spend She lost when she separated from her husband And pulled him down into bankruptcy aswel

Once again the judiciary has been shown as not fit for purpose. How can you trust the system that sticks two fingers up to the victim basically saying tough. Ok he may not get any money back but surely she deserves a m

Another reason UK justice and the law needs a shakeup, but not before i go commit a quick £50m fraud and agree to pay back £50

So no punishment while they swan off to wherever they secretly moved the money? Absolutely disgusting!

The laws an ass
