The court heard that Wood, 47, accessed his younger sister’s bank account to make purchases and transfer money to himself, to the value of £5,005. In a victim impact statement read to the court, his sister said: "I just want to know why he did it, and where the money has gone. The court heard the offences were motivated in part by a gambling addiction. He was ordered to pay compensation in full as well as court costs of £85 and a £187 victim surcharge.
