Charity Thief Harassed Woman

A disgraced children's charity worker with a drinking problem has been convicted of harassing a woman last year.

Christopher Wiseman, 41, of Woodlea Drive, Bromley was sentenced to a twelve-month Community Order after fighting the case.

He appeared at Bromley Magistrates' Court charged with pursuing a course of conduct between June 15 and July 12, last year, which amounted to the harassment of Nicola Deane.

Wiseman was said to have continued contacting the victim after being asked to stop and also contacted her brother and mother and her place of work.

He was ordered to complete sixty hours community service work; an alcohol treatment programme and pay £500 costs and a £90 victim surcharge.

Wiseman was also made subject to a two-year restraining order, prohibiting contact with the victim.

He hit the headline two months ago when sentenced to twenty-one months imprisonment, suspended for two years, for offences including the theft of a laptop and three mobile phones from Mayfair-based charity Children's Investment Fund.

Wiseman was the Third World charity's IT boss and also abused the organisation's credit card by using it to buy cigars and alcohol during a works trip to the 4-star Sheraton New Delhi.
