A MANAGER of a Royal Mail crime investigation team has appeared at a Birmingham magistrates court accused of stealing over £6,000 from the company.

Ian Johnson, 42, of Foxcote Close, Redditch, pleaded not guilty to the theft of £6,025 belonging to Royal Mail Group Limited between September 7 and December 1 last year.

He has also denied a fraud allegation in relation to a Next gift card worth £48.99.

The magistrates ruled that the case should be sent to the city’s Crown Court.

Johnson was allowed bail.

The case was adjourned until April 30 for committal proceedings to take place.

It's not that unbelievable.
Some cops are bent...stands to reason some IB are too...positions of power can attract the lowest form of life. :neutral:
What's unbelievable is just how easy the entrance exam must be because this guy,if guilty* is obviously not the sharpest tool in the box and the magistrate hasn't sent it to the Crown Court for a laugh.
If i were him i'd be practising the showering with your back against the wall technique. :nervous

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
