Subject

MISRA case
- Def pleaded not guilty to theft (but pleaded guilty to FA)
- Def produced computer expert to argue Horizon issues
PO used Fujitsu expert to argue Horizon issues
- Outcome — found guilty by jury of theft after a 7 day trial
- Evidence relied to convict ~
© She alleged it was either Horizon computer or her employees
o She said after she had got rid of employees the losses got worse
Therefore she blamed Horizon (at a late stage in the proceedings ~ after it was listed for trial ~ so this
trial got adjourned whilst each side got Horizon evidence together)
o it was a jury trial — so no explanation as to what evidence was relied on by them re conviction

Looking at the stats, one theft case was found guilty after pleading not guilty. What evidence was relied on to convict?

AWAITING INTEL

2. How many of the SPMs were convicted of respectively, fraud, theft and false accounting?

Theft -3
Fraud -2
False Accounting ~ 4

(Note - 2 CASES where we haven't yet been able to confirm the charge)

3. In each category, how many of those convicted pled guilty?

4. How many (if any) were prosecuted but found not quilty?
