Breathe easy, friends of Bob Diamond and the guy who wrote “Anything for you, Big Boy,” as a response to the request, “Can you manipulate Libor for me today when you’ve got a sec? Thanks a mill.” In this case we speak of Rachael Claire Martin, the ex-Barlcays employee who used customer funds to pay for breast augmentations, dental work, liposuction, drugs, alcohol, shoes, and jewelry, despite initially telling authorities she covered the tricks and treats with money she earned engaging in sex for payment (an excuse anyone else facing questioning for their own alleged misconduct should feel free to test out).

Mother-of-one and law graduate Rachael Martin, 24, ‘spent money like water’ after getting a job with Barclays in Liskeard, Cornwall, where she was responsible for dealing with cheques. The stolen cash paid for a breast enlargement, thought to be worth £4,000, dental work worth £1,700, and liposuction, as well as nights out, drink and drugs. She has now been jailed after stealing £46,000 in just two months from her employers. Extravagances included £1,687.95 at the Windsor Place dental surgery in Liskeard, and £500 on unspecified cosmetic surgery at Harley Medical, the court heard. Martin also lavished £670 at exclusive jewellers Tiffany, and £506 on a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes.

When she was arrested, Martin, from St Austell in Cornwall, told police she earned money as an escort in Bristol, adding that she was ‘a common prostitute’. But the claim was a cover for her criminal behaviour, said prosecutor Iain Leadbetter. Recorder Jeremy Wright jailed Martin, who has an eight-year-old son, for 52 weeks, telling her she had demonstrated a ‘concerted, clever and serious breach of trust’.

Bank worker, 24, who stole £46,000 to fund boob job and party lifestyle told police she earned the money working as an escort [DM]

    so in terms of jail time in the uk; embezzlement > prostitution?

    Really hope the 'people who cover up their crimes by claiming to be hookers' tag gets a lot of play.

    in her defense, if that pic only shows her legs up to her chest, she can qualify as a 6 or 7

    52 weeks in jail? I believe that is mathematically equivalent to one year in jail.

    If 75,000USD exceeded her annual salary, there is an employment arbitrage opportunity here. Assumption being they don't repo her tits.

    1st id love to say wonderful extremely awesome car. A freind of mine bought a 69 dart GTS with only 41000 original mi it was that copper color by using a blak vinal major 383 which has a four speed . He allow the car sit for several years i have to say the car was excellent i indicate flawless. He pulled the motor to place a built 440 in witch is fine but he sold the 383 Massive MISTAKE then he mini tubed the car . In other terms he ruined the car. WHAT A IDIOT THAT CAR WAS BEUITIFUL what a waste .a 41000 mi car i could of cried(i feel i did) anyways great car…
