'We had our suspicions and we were trying our best to get evidence to put a stop to it,' said one of the sisters, reflecting on their struggle to confirm their doubts about their stepbrother's alleged illness. They felt compelled to act when the dishonesty was affecting so many people, highlighting a moral obligation to reveal the truth behind the fundraising.
The sisters discovered that about 200 people had donated a total of £3,280 (€3,871) to an online appeal set up by their stepbrother, Stephen Doherty. This revelation spurred them into action, as they realized the extent of the manipulation and the need for transparency that would protect unsuspecting donors.
