TSB Bank teller stole $28,000 from customers to feed her gambling addiction

How far do people go to feed a gambling addiction?

In this story we have a young bank teller, 28 years old lady, who stole 28,000$ from four different elders who were suffering from health and cognitive problems. Her goal was to fuel a gambling addiction, as presented by the defense at the court.

Families must be attentive to their elders when going to the bank and dealing with money in general. Scammers and thieves are everywhere and always ready to take advantage of the vulnerability of such individuals at an advanced age.
At first I was even looking at this story to be linked to a man but surprisingly, I don't know that females can still get this far be of being a gambling addict to steal such an amount of money, This is addiction and greed coupled together, I guess her aim of stealing this money would have been that she wanted to double down the money since it wasn't that a little amount, hoping that she will make an huge amount of profit.
