£130K CON AT CHASE STAR'S OFFICE

Crooked legal clerk jailed

- ADELA WHITTINGHAM

A BARRISTERS’ clerk stole more than £130,000 from the chambers of The Chase star Shaun Wallace – and spent £10,000 on dog training.

Mathew Kesbey, 48, “betrayed” colleagues and friends at a time when lawyers were struggling during the pandemic because jury trials were paused.

The London-based Great James Street Chambers counts professional quizzer, Dr Shaun Wallace, as one of the barristers on its books.
