‘Selfish’ woman tricked her widowed friend into handing over her wedding ring to buy heroin
A “selfish” woman took advantage of a vulnerable widow by stealing the trusting victim’s wedding and eternity rings and pawning them to raise cash for heroin, Hull Live reports. The two women had been close friends but “desperate” drug addict Claire Cumming repeatedly pestered her for money before turning up at her door late one night to plead for more cash.
Cumming made further “begging” requests for money and the woman felt under “relentless and constant pressure”. On August 12, 2019, Cumming went to the widow’s home at midnight, banged on the front door and asked for money.The woman spoke to her on the doorstep but had no money to give her. Cumming noticed the wedding ring on the widow’s finger and asked her for it, saying she would return it the following morning.
The woman was particularly upset that she had not got her two phones back because they contained “precious” and “irreplaceable” photographs of her late husband, her mother-in-law, her father and other members of the family. The stolen items included a gold-banded wedding ring with a stone, a gold eternity ring, a gold identity bracelet bearing two engravings of the couple’s names and a gold banded ring with stones on it.“Considerable emotional distress has been caused,” said Miss Baggs.
She said of her current situation: “I am not an addict. There are things in my life that are more important. Drugs are not on my radar.”
