      "Judge Sally Cahill QC also heard how Upton, a married father of one, met a part-time model on the internet and set her up in a flat in Salford as well as buying her a car, underwear and handbags.

      His affair was only discovered when his mistress contacted his office and got hold of Mrs Upton."

        The thing I will never understand is why when caught and bailed he did it again to another client.
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            Do you think she looks good enough to spend 6 years in jail and ruin your life?

              Me personally? Nope. But then I'm not an overweight accountant going through a mid-life crisis.

                Are you saying that mid-life crisis is spending lots of stolen money on cars, model railways and mistress? Going to jail for 6 years is in my book.

                Overall I think this stuff is far more when compared to alleged Tornado pilot who went to Italy for a bowl of noodles...

                  Everyone goes through a mid-life crisis at some point. I went through mine at 28, luckily I didn't have access to that kind of money then... Which is a shame.

                    Well, most men I know didn't steal the money they spent on dolly-birds and cars when they had their mid-life crisis.

                      I don't know many people who would steal 500k for it or lose a thriving business. This is after he was already in trouble from his failed Ponzi scheme, and after the birth of his little one.
