A thief dubbed 'Britain's drunkest woman' has admitted that she stole bacon in order to fund her somewhat excessive habit of downing 28 pints a day.
31-year-old Dawn Marsden has received a six-month conditional discharge in Hartlepool Magistrates' Court after admitting to stealing 10 packs of bacon to help fund her boozy ways.
Jobless Marsden was so hammered when she showed up for sentencing that she had to ask reporters what her punishment was afterwards.
"You may have noticed my client has a drink problem," her solicitor told Hartlepool Magistrates’ Court.
