A Dunedin woman who ripped off three charities on the same day has been sentenced to home detention.
Monique Teiria Barclay appeared in the Dunedin District Court yesterday after admitting eight offences, all of which were committed while she was serving a sentence of supervision for previous dishonesty.
The trouble for the mother of three began on August 18, when she rammed her partner's car after an argument.
The 29-year-old was granted bail but it was only a couple of weeks before the spree of offending continued.
On September 7, Barclay made three visits to New World over five hours, walking away with $548 of stolen groceries.
