PRESS RELEASE: Tom Wise MEP Fraud Case - Lindsay Jenkins Cleared

Harry Travers, partner at BCL Burton Copeland, representing Lindsay Jenkins said: “We are very pleased that Mr Wise has now accepted full responsibility and admitted that he persuaded our client Mrs Jenkins to sign blank forms that he later filled in with false details. If he had admitted this in the first place then Mrs Jenkins would never had been charged and put through this ordeal. Mrs Jenkins’ reputation for probity and public service, as confirmed by prosecution evidence in the trial, has been wholly exonerated.” Contacts: Harry Travers, BCL Burton Copeland: 07973 226 584 Iain Rodger, Maltin PR: 07733 124 082
