Kelli Kilpatrick received a fully suspended three-year prison sentence for theft at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court. The proceedings were reported on 28 April 2022.

She pleaded guilty to eight sample counts from 54 theft charges committed between April 2017 and August 2018, with other counts taken into consideration.

The report said nearly €29,000 was taken from 31 holidaymakers, while Kilpatrick’s lawyers said she had no intention of funding an extravagant lifestyle and never made money.

Judge Martin Nolan imposed the suspended term on condition that €25,000 be handed to victims and a further €3,000 paid in compensation within a year.
