A woman who claimed over £500,000 worth of benefits which she was not entitled to was caught dancing to Michael Jackson's song Bad despite claiming she could not move her arms. Maribel Milligan, 53, from West Cornforth, County Durham, was jailed for three years after falsely claiming £539,907 over a period of 11 years. Milligan, who was claiming seven different benefits, was captured on video dancing (pictured, left). Judge Howard Crowson told Milligan (right): 'You were sitting clapping your hands and clicking your fingers in time with the music having told us your arms were essentially useless.'
A smooth criminal! Disability benefits fraudster who wrongly claimed £500,000 by claiming she couldn't move her arms is filmed dancing to Michael Jackson song - and, yes, she IS bad!
