"The American conwoman, found guilty in a Co Down court of swindling four people out of £115,000 before fleeing back to the US, constantly reinvented herself, lying to and stealing from her friends, neighbours and even a Hollywood producer"
"The voice on the recording was high-pitched, American and filled with self-importance. "We took a council vote because I told Mary (Lou) McDonald and Michelle O'Neill they have 24 hours to claim their seats and get it sorted or they need to walk," the woman said down the phone to a man in Bingham, Maine, New England."
An American conwoman was convicted in a Co Down court for swindling four people of £115,000 before fleeing back to the United States. She repeatedly reinvented her identity and engaged in lies and theft targeting friends, neighbours and even a Hollywood producer. A recording captured her high-pitched, self-important American voice issuing an ultimatum and invoking a council vote while speaking to a man in Bingham, Maine. The recording named Mary (Lou) McDonald and Michelle O'Neill and demanded they claim seats within 24 hours or walk. The case involves cross-border elements and multiple victims.
